What is Ruby on Rails?

Ruby on Rails is a powerful and versatile open-source web application framework that simplifies the process of building modern web applications. Designed for the Ruby programming language, Rails provides a comprehensive set of tools and conventions that enable developers to quickly create robust and scalable web applications. Its full-stack architecture empowers developers to seamlessly integrate various components of a web application, including server-side logic, database interactions, and front-end rendering, all within a cohesive and organized framework. With its emphasis on convention over configuration and its adherence to the Model-View-Controller (MVC) architectural pattern, Rails streamlines the development process, allowing developers to focus on building innovative features rather than managing complex infrastructure. Whether you're a seasoned web developer or new to the field, Ruby on Rails offers an accessible and efficient path to creating robust and dynamic web applications
