The [blocks gem](http://github.com/hunterae/blocks) was written and is maintained by [Andrew Hunter](http://github.com/hunterae).

If you think this looks somewhat familiar, there's good reason for that. Any similarities you may notice with [Rails's content_for with yield](http://api.rubyonrails.org/classes/ActionView/Helpers/CaptureHelper.html#method-i-content_for) and [rendering partials in Rails](https://apidock.com/rails/ActionController/Base/render) are intentional (the proxying feature may even remind you of [Ruby's Forwardable Module](http://ruby-doc.org/stdlib-2.0.0/libdoc/forwardable/rdoc/Forwardable.html)). Part of the original reasoning for the creating this gem was to provide a common interface for rendering both Ruby blocks and Rails' partials.

Special thanks to the following people for helping advance this gem and its corresponding documentation forward:

* [Todd Fisher](https://github.com/taf2) - For helping me visualize and create the initial inception of this gem back in 2011 and understand how Ruby blocks work
* [Jon Phillips](https://github.com/elguapo1611) - For helping me work out syntax and use cases for the Blocks gem
* [Various people and teams at LivingSocial](https://www.livingsocial.com/) - For allowing and believing in me to run with an experimental and unproven technology to help my gem start to take shape into what it is today.
* [Various people at MobileCause](https://www.mobilecause.com/) - For helping me to advance my vision for this gem into what it is today and what is being documented here.
* [Alexis Gormley](https://github.com/n2diving) - For suggesting the [Slate theme](https://github.com/lord/slate) for the documentation, designing the gem's branding, and proofing the documentation.
* [Vaughn Weiss](https://github.com/VonTeacher) - For reviewing and revising the Blocks Docs.
