As mentioned, the most amazing thing about Ruby is the community, and especially the Gem ecosystem.
Like, ok. JS has a huge community with NPM packages for everything. Cool; whatever. There's so many of them for even the same purpose that you get some sort of like package fatigue. Seriously, have you seen how many React state management libraries there are? Or how many different Webpack alternatives? Or how many different Fetch alternatives?
In the Ruby ecosystem, you have more or less one Gem for everything, and the Gems are usually very well supported and battle tested in big companies.
Of course, there's a lot of great, well-known & battle tested NPM libraries as well... but I find RubyGems to be easier to navigate as well as more focused.
