35. RubyOnRailsfor yourappidea
It’s easy to learn
You can easily find
knowledge almost
everywhere – from paid
books, free ebooks,
youtube videos, websites
to knowledge bases of
Ruby on Rails
development houses.
Designed for
programmer happiness
Thanks to Ruby rules
like Convention over
Configuration or Don’t
Repeat Yourself
developers have less
work, and the results
are coming much faster.
Resources
Development simplicity
and fun depends on
compatibility with the
ecosystem. Ruby on Rails
also means more then
50.000 gems (plugins)
that you can add to your
application.
Community
Even if you will have any
problems with the code,
RoR has really huge
community, who can
kindly answer your
questions and solve your
problems.
Security
It was always a very
important thing in the
world of Ruby. There is a
lot of dedicated features
implemented directly
into the Ruby on Rails
framework and they are
enabled by default.
RoR is not a framework,
it’s a lifestyle
Better code, cool projects
and finally – great
product. Ruby on rails
also became a symbol of
the whole culture –
young, well-educated
entrepreneurs of fast
growing businesses.
