Appendix
Organizations
Organizations help teams and businesses collaborate, share gem ownership, manage permissions, and work together under a unified identity.
What are Organizations?
Organizations provide a shared space for multiple users to collectively manage RubyGems. Instead of individual ownership, gems belong to the organization, making it easier to:
- Maintain continuity when team members change
- Control access with role-based permissions
- Collaborate effectively on gem development
- Establish identity for your company or project
