Summary
Textris is a Ruby gem that makes sending SMS messages in Rails easy and natural, separating out views from controllers. It uses Twilio's Ruby helper library to send SMS messages, but provides a more Rails-like experience than using the Twilio Ruby helper library directly. Textris allows for easy configuration of Twilio and supports localization of SMS messages. The gem can be used with Rails 4 or 5, and provides a number of benefits over using the Twilio Ruby helper library directly, including reduced code length and improved separation of concerns.
