What is Ruby on Rails:

 Ruby is a dynamic; fully object-oriented scripting language created back in 1995. Using HTML, Javascript and CSS developers can build an architecturally clean and high-quality web application.

 During the building of Basecamp in 2005, David Heinemeier Hansson (DHH) envisioned a controlling library over the Ruby programming language, thus originating the rails framework. Later he made it extensible and flexible and uprooted with the open-source market.

 And the framework was further improved and makes the breakthrough for web application development.

 The Key principle of RoR development is “Convention over Configuration”. It means the developer does not need to spend much time to configure the files in order to set up where are Rails comes with a set of convections that helps to speed up the development process.

 From the management point of view, Ruby on rails community supports an iterative development method knows as Agile Development. This Method encourages the collaborative and flexible approach which well appropriate for the web app development with fast-changing necessities.

 Over the years Ruby on Rails has been upgrading its version (Currently: 6.0.0.beta3 – March 13, 2019) and gained a huge following.

“I’m still convinced that RoR is adequate to implement the requirements of about 95% of today’s web applications, it’s obvious that it isn’t “hip” any more. I agree that the language and the framework might not scale up to millions of concurrent users, thousands of data streams etc., but I assume that this is not relevant for all but very few companies.

All the micro services and big data buzz reminds me of the mindless adoption of EJB application servers in the early 2000s, when even the simplest web application was designed using transaction monitors and heavyweight EJBs.

The team productivity for developing small to midsized web applications with RoR is still unbeaten – there’s just no other framework that can deliver results within short time.”
