Ruby 3 introduced the fiber scheduler which provides transparent context switching between fibers when they perform blocking operations. With minimal changes, web applications can take advantage of the fiber scheduler to improve performance and unlock new techniques for application design and interactivity. We discuss the current state of the fiber scheduler design, its usage in several real world applications, and how you can take advantage of it in your own projects.
