Ruby on Rails

Ruby on Rails, commonly referred to as Rails, is an open-source server-side web application framework written in the Ruby programming language. It follows the Model-View-Controller (MVC) architectural pattern, providing default structures for databases, web services, and web pages. Rails emphasizes the use of well-known software engineering principles such as Convention over Configuration (CoC) and Don't Repeat Yourself (DRY), aiming to simplify and accelerate the development of database-driven web applications.
