Ruby On Rails Overview
What is Ruby On Rails?

Ruby on Rails, often referred to as Rails, is an open-source web application framework written in Ruby. It emphasizes convention over configuration (CoC) and the don't repeat yourself (DRY) principle, aiming to simplify and accelerate web development by providing default structures for a database, a web service, and web pages. Rails enables developers to use a model-view-controller (MVC) pattern to organize application programming. Its rich ecosystem of gems (libraries) allows for rapid development of complex web applications.

We built many things using Ruby on rails : e-commerce system, ride sharing system, startups, marketplace, etc

"Single ruby framework"
What do you like best about Ruby On Rails?

Ruby on Rails provide for you all required stuff to start developing project from tiny blogs to hish load complex sysytems. Simple start, a lot of gems, generators, api mode, large community. Fast and usefull updates, up-to-dated docs. Flexibility of framework settings. Easy to build automated tests, A lot of cool DB adapters.

What do you dislike about Ruby On Rails?

It's pretty hard to update Ruby on Rails from 2x to 4x and higher. Monkey patches. Could take a while to set up another DB like mongodb because there a lot of active record calls. It would be good to have some js frameworks support.

What problems is Ruby On Rails solving and how is that benefiting you?

I am building different apps starts with simple blogs and ends with global heavyweights which is including 1M+ code lines. Ruby on Rails perfectly copes with these tasks. Starting with Rails 5 API mode included which is allows any kind of API easier and faster.
