Ruby on Rails

by Marcus Vorwaller.

Rails is an open source Web application framework that makes assumptions about the tasks required to create a Web application, then makes those tasks much simpler. The end effect is increased productivity in terms of development time, lines of code and well-being of programmers. Rails accomplishes this without taking away control or limiting the scope or complexity of an application. Rails is built on the powerful, full-featured, object-oriented programming language Ruby. Many people familiar with Rails have seen a video demonstration on rubyonrails.com in which a Weblog with basic features is built from scratch in 15 minutes. While this is indeed possible to do with Rails (using the built-in “scaffolding”), it is such a minor subset of the overall features that many people have been led to believe that Rails is a “one-trick pony” or that it provides only a simple way to get up and running and leaves you to your own devices after that. Neither statement is true. [via]
