russian
Russian language support for Ruby and Rails, providing localization, date and time handling, pluralization, and transliteration for Cyrillic text. The gem extends Ruby's standard library with Russian strftime formatting and strptime parsing, correct Russian pluralization rules, and Cyrillic-to-Latin transliteration. It includes a proxy for the i18n gem that enforces the Russian locale. With Ruby on Rails, it adds full Russian localization through built-in mechanisms, supports contextual month names in date and time select helpers, provides custom validation error messages without redundant attribute names, and enables transliteration-based URLs such as posts/42-privet-mir. Suitable for applications that are entirely in Russian or another Cyrillic language, or for projects supporting a small number of languages where Russian is primary. Not recommended for apps targeting many languages or using non-standard i18n backends. Requires modern Ruby (3.2+ or 4.0+) and Rails 7.2 through 8.1. Rails is optional. Install
