What is Rails?

Rails, also known as Ruby on Rails, is a powerful and popular web application framework written in Ruby. Since its release in 2004, Rails has become renowned for its developer-friendly conventions and ability to build robust web applications rapidly. It emphasizes simplicity and productivity, enabling developers to create full-featured applications with less code.

Key Features of Rails

  • Convention over Configuration (CoC): Rails minimizes configuration decisions by following conventions, reducing the amount of code and time needed to set up.
  • Don’t Repeat Yourself (DRY): Promotes reusability and maintainability by avoiding redundancy in code.
  • Active Record: An Object-Relational Mapping (ORM) system that simplifies database interactions and ensures data consistency.
  • RESTful Architecture: Encourages REST principles, providing a clear structure for building web services.
  • Scaffolding: Generates boilerplate code for quick prototyping and development.
  • Security: Built-in protection against common web vulnerabilities like SQL injection, Cross-Site Scripting (XSS), and Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF).
  • Gems and Plugins: Extensive library of pre-built packages to extend functionality effortlessly.
  • Testing Framework: Integrated testing tools to support Test-Driven Development (TDD) and Behavior-Driven Development (BDD).
