Ruby on Rails?

Ruby on Rails is an open source programming language that provides a code stage to quickly build database-driven web applications.
It includes five standard packages:
ActiveRecord, ActiveResource, ActionPack, ActiveSupport and ActionMailer that can be extended. The Rails framework, which provides the structure for the models and views needed for a basic website, is developed employing the Model-View-Controller (MVC) architecture.

There are two concepts in Ruby on Rails--Convention over Configuration (CoC) and Don't Repeat Yourself (DRY).
The principle behind COC is that only strange aspects of the application need to be specified; otherwise, they follow the established standard.
DRY requires that information be placed in a single, unambiguous location to ensure a single point of reference and avoid hidden errors.

The principles behind Ruby on Rails allow for huge development speed while minimizing lines of code and errors. It has the advantage of including a lot of web development know how from its inception, which makes it simple to use, maintain, and extend.

Ruby on Rails is now widely embraced as a great tool to rapidly build scalable, database-driven web applications.
