This free online converter lets you convert code from Ruby to Golang in a click of a button. To use this converter, take the following steps -
- Type or paste your Ruby code in the input box.
- Click the convert button.
- The resulting Golang code from the conversion will be displayed in the output box.
Examples
The following are examples of code conversion from Ruby to Golang using this converter. Note that you may not always get the same code since it is generated by an AI language model which is not 100% deterministic and gets updated from time to time.

Key differences between Ruby and Golang
Characteristic | Ruby | Golang |
---|---|---|
Syntax | Ruby has a more flexible and expressive syntax compared to Golang. | Golang has a simpler and more rigid syntax compared to Ruby. |
Paradigm | Ruby is a dynamically-typed, object-oriented language with support for functional programming. | Golang is a statically-typed, procedural language with support for object-oriented programming. |
Typing | Ruby is dynamically-typed, meaning that variable types are determined at runtime. | Golang is statically-typed, meaning that variable types are determined at compile-time. |
Performance | Ruby is slower compared to Golang due to its interpreted nature and garbage collection. | Golang is faster compared to Ruby due to its compiled nature and efficient memory management. |
Libraries and frameworks | Ruby has a large number of libraries and frameworks available, particularly for web development. | Golang has a smaller number of libraries and frameworks available compared to Ruby, but they are generally well-documented and maintained. |
Community and support | Ruby has a large and active community with many resources available for learning and support. | Golang has a growing community with good documentation and support available. |
Learning curve | Ruby has a moderate learning curve due to its flexible syntax and object-oriented nature. | Golang has a relatively low learning curve due to its simple syntax and procedural nature. |
