Ruby Gems are the premier ruby packaging system. It provides:
- A standard format for distributing Ruby programs and libraries.
- An easy to use tool for managing the installation of gem packages.
- A gem server utility for serving gems from any machine where RubyGems is installed.
A Rails plugin is either an extension or a modification of the core framework. Plugins provide:
- A way for developers to share bleeding-edge ideas without hurting the stable code base
- A segmented architecture so that units of code can be fixed or updated on their own release schedule
- An outlet for the core developers so that they don’t have to include every cool new feature under the sun
