The stated goal of MacRuby is to be 100% compatible syntactically and 
behaviorally with Ruby 1.9.  So, in theory, you should be able to write 
usual Ruby code.

I don't know that all the gems are compatible though.  You might ask 
their list about particular gems...

There is no other IDE from Apple except Xcode that would be used for 
Ruby.
