What is Ruby on Rails?
Ruby on Rails is a web framework written in the Ruby programming language under the MIT license or in other words, Ruby on Rails is a control model framework (MVC) that also provides default constructs for databases used in building and developing web applications. The first version of Ruby on Rails was introduced to the community in 2015. Ruby on Rails is free and open-source software developed by David Heinemeier Hansson.
Specifically, Ruby is a programming language, while Rails is a web application framework designed to work perfectly with Ruby. Ruby is quite simple to learn, and it's interesting too. Learning Ruby is easier than other programming languages. But the only problem with Ruby is that it wasn't designed for use on the web until Rails came out. Rails are the most popular framework for Ruby, which basically allows us to write a Ruby application and run it as a web page. Some popular websites are currently built on Ruby on Rails such as SoundCloud, GitHub, Shopify, Airbnb, Bloomberg, Twitter (with version since 2006)...
Why is Ruby on Rails so popular?
There are a number of reasons why Ruby on Rails is so often chosen.
The first reason is simply that its syntax is very simple and beginner-friendly. Learning to code in Ruby is much easier than any other programming language because it is so versatile that it provides us with the CLI command line window tool that automates many common tasks during creation, thereby increasing working speed and efficiency.
Secondly, Ruby on Rails is built on the most modern practices in website building and development so once you master Ruby on Rails you will easily switch to another web framework. Ruby on Rails was created and brought a lot of benefits to other web frameworks such as: J2EE, .NET. In addition, to ensure this software process is quick and easy, Ruby on Rails programmers often use many conventions. From there, undertaking and handling multiple tasks will become easier; These tasks are: mail management, file structures, object- database mappers, code generation ... This is one of the outstanding features of Ruby on Rails that help programmers to simplify coding and broadcasting much faster and easier to understand and maintain.
Besides that, there are dozens of large companies using it. This proves the usefulness and excellence of Ruby on Rails compared to other programming languages.
What are the advantages of Ruby on Rails?
Code Quality: In general, the quality of the software that supports Ruby code is considered to be much higher than that of others.
Performance: Ruby on Rails is one of the very neat programming languages, so when using it you can combine it with other support libraries. From there, the development process will become much faster.
Tools: The user will be provided with a super standard structure for web applications. Thanks to that, we can easily deploy all the features without spending too much time.
Libraries: Ruby on Rails is capable of providing users with gems and all of these gems are free and easy to use.
Community: Right now, the Ruby community is very popular. Therefore, the number of good programmers is gradually joining the Ruby community.
Does Ruby on Rails have downsides or not?
Of course, for each different programming language, there are different disadvantages, and Ruby on Rails is no exception:
Ruby on Rails has a relatively slower runtime compared to NodeJS or GoLang. This issue occurs due to its server design as well as the database.
Besides, the boot speed of the Rails framework causes a lot of frustration for developers to work with Rails. Later, Sping was born that could somewhat improve the speed of boot, but it was still evaluated by many experts as not really good.
