Programming Ruby 3.2, the fifth edition of the Pickaxe Book, is now available in beta at https://pragprog.com/titles/ruby5/programming-ruby-3-2-5th-edition/.

It covers Ruby up to and including the not-yet-released Ruby 3.2.

It contains a complete overview and tutorial of the Ruby language and covers commonly used Ruby tools like irb, gems, Bundler, Rack and so on…

It’s got the in-depth Ruby learning it had before, plus It’s got new Ruby features, new descriptions, new sample code, new tooling, and at least a few new jokes.
