I’ve just released Judge 1.5.0 and since it’s been a while since the last update, I thought I’d run through some of the improvements that have been made since version 1.0.0 and also introduce some ideas for future improvements.

Following on from my previous post about Formtastic, there’s now a Judge extension gem for SimpleForm too.

There’s now an extension gem to help you use Judge for client-side validation from within your Formtastic forms.

In January, I gave a talk at the London Ruby User Group about Judge. I swore a bit and rambled a bit, as I often do. I’ve put the presentation slides up here and the talk is available to watch again courtesy of Skills Matter, the venue provider for LRUG.

Since version 1.0 has just been released and I’ve settled on what I hope is a friendly interface, I thought it was probably time I wrote a bit about Judge, my client-side form validation gem for Rails 3.
