No Documentation?

Is there any documentation available on how to use this backend and how much of the Ruby language is supported. This just supports a subset of it correct?

Sorry for delay responding. Such info as there is on using this backend is at https://github.com/paulfitz/haxe/wiki/Haxe-Ruby-Target

I'm not sure I understand your question of how much of the Ruby language is supported; this backend is for compiling from haxe code to ruby rather than the other way around.

Would mruby be a better target than ruby itself? It's smaller, and works on embedded devices.

@ashes999 For me, the main advantage would be to leverage Ruby's extremely vast and productive eco-system. Imagine being able to leverage Rails (or rails-api) in a type-safe way and add even more magic by adding the Haxe macro layer above it. I can dream :)
