The JRuby bindings for Neo4j by Andreas Ronge have reached its first milestone with Neo4j.rb version 0.1.0, featuring enhancements to properties and indexing capabilities such as Date/DateTime. The project aims to provide a Ruby interface to the popular graph database Neo4j, allowing developers to interact with it using the Ruby programming language. With this release, users can now try out the bindings and provide feedback to help improve the project. Additionally, the development and issue tracking for Neo4j.rb are available on the Lighthouse project page.
