Ruffle (software)
Ruffle is an emulator for SWF files. Ruffle is freely licensed and developed openly on GitHub. Following the deprecation and disabling of Adobe Flash Player, some websites adopted Ruffle so users could continue to view and interact with legacy Flash content. Features Ruffle is written in the Rust programming language, featuring a desktop client and a web client. Website authors can load Ruffle using JavaScript or users can install a browser extension that works on any website. The web client relies on Rust being compiled to WebAssembly, which allows it to run inside a sandbox, a significant improvement compared to Flash Player, which had a significant amount of security issues. The Rust language itself prevents against common memory safety issues that Flash Player suffered from, such as use after free or buffer overflows. The desktop client uses a command-line interface to open SWF files, with a full graphical user interface planned for the future. Downloads are available ...

Ruffle Bar
Ruffle Bar is a island located in Jamaica Bay in the borough of Brooklyn in New York City, off the coast of Canarsie.

By the next decade, a hotel on the island had opened.

Ruffle (sewing)
In sewing and dressmaking, a ruffle, frill, or furbelow is a strip of fabric, lace or ribbon tightly gathered or pleated on one edge and applied to a garment, bedding, or other textile as a form of trimming. Ruffles can be made from a single layer of fabric (which may need a hem) or a doubled layer. Plain ruffles are usually cut on the straight grain. Ruffles may be gathered by using a gathering stitch, or by passing the fabric through a mechanical ruffler, which is an attachment available for some sewing machines. A flounce is a particular type of fabric manipulation that creates a similar look but with less bulk. The term derives from earlier terms of ''frounce'' or ''fronce''. A wavy effect is achieved without gathers or pleats by cutting a curved (or even circular) strip of fabric and applying the inner or shorter edge to the garment. The depth of the curve as well as the width of the fabric determines the depth of the flounce. A godet is a circle wedge that can ...
