Ruby on Rails Applications Development

Ruby on Rails (RoR) is an open source framework for Ruby programming language. It follows the Model View Controller (MVC) design pattern to organize application programming. It is intended to be used with an Agile development methodology that is used by software engineers for rapid development.

Features

RoR helps developer to reduce development time and speed up delivery. The basic tenets for ROR are:

	Ease of learn and use: In built packages helps developer t write complex logic much easier. Developers can save lot of time from writing length and unmanageable code and also focus on performance, security and UI of application. Ruby is pretty basic language to learn. Any developer who has prior experience to PHP, Python, PERL, Java, C, C++ etc can command over this in few days.
	Convention over Configuration: Rails has defaults convention for every area of web application development. Following the conventions, application can be written using less code than most other available frameworks. It also gives you flexibility to override the conventions.
	DRY (Don’t Repeat Yourself): ROR encourages DRY approach. Every piece of information in a system should be maintained in just one place. From a coding perspective, code logic that is repeated should be consolidated into one location. ROR restrict developers to write duplicate code in multiple place of a single application.
	REST interface: Representational state transfer (REST) is a style of architecture for distributed hypermedia systems such as the World Wide Web. REST is a commonly-utilized pattern for web applications - organizing an application around resources and standard HTTP verbs. Ruby on Rails supports for REST patterns by default. Using scaffolds and Rails metaprogramming (e.g. routing) encourage REST pattern use.
	Write Good Tests: ROR comes with an integrated testing framework that supports traditional testing methods including unit and integration testing. It helps developer to add new features and refactoring of code quickly and accurately.
