a
Ruby on Rails- Powerful and Flexible web framework

Powered by Ruby on Rails

Ruby on Rails has been the basis for which we have constructed projects for many clients.  Though the platform may not garner the same popularity it once did, it still provides exceptional tools for web development.  The way it simplifies development peels off many of the complex layers needed to construct an app successfully.

Why is it so Effective?

Simply put, Ruby on Rails is a web framework.  It provides prefabricated structures tailored to the code and database the developers are using in line with what the developers aim to build. Each model is composed of three different segments: the model that contains the data structure of the application, the view consisting of the web application’s front end that viewers will interact with, and the controller consisting of the business logic that ties both the data structures to the user interface. It may not support machine learning, but it does have extensive libraries to facilitate continued development.
