Ruby on Rails has become one of
the most discussed and utilized platforms in the development world and with a
myriad of programming languages such as C, C++, Java and FORTRAN many are
wondering looking at this sudden surge in popularity for this platform.
There has always been a cult
following for the platform since it was developed by a small time developer in
Japan during the 90’s but right now the attention it has gotten has actually
surprised the already existing Ruby on
Rails developers. The limited number of ROR programmers who have been developing their applications using
the platform have been sharing their experiences on how simple it has become to
develop web based applications using the ROR platform.
But this sudden attention for the
Ruby language has aroused solely because of integrating the Rails platform
along with it by a company which had done it for developing its projects and
this language took a huge turn as each and every ROR developer started understanding the nuances used by this company.
The dynamic nature of the Ruby Language had a great impact on the development
process of a project employed by a Ruby
on Rails programmer when integrated with the Rails framework. Rails
developers emphasize that the Rails features are more than sufficient for
versatile development rather than any other tools which are available, and this
aspect is adopted for the Web architecture too.
Typically if a computer program
has to be developed the process has to be started from the scratch and this
process involves the developer to deploy all his / her skills and techniques in
such a way that the development is done efficiently. Whereas Rails is
considered the developer can rely basically on the conventions of the platform
rather than relying on the tools to tweak the configuration which might take up
much time and tasks of the programmers. This reduces the number of lines of
code which is required to be written whilst using any other technology and the
lines of code which need to be written is also simplified in a straightforward
way.
The ROR programmers are given with options which are very essential for
the development of the project and they need to concentrate mainly on that
aspect along reliving other mundane information which might waste the time
which can be used for the development of the project. This time which is saved
by using the ROR platform can be utilized in concentrating more on the
requirements of the clients / users. Unless the project being developed
satisfies the basic requirements it has to the need for the development of the
project does not get fulfilled and it will not be considered as a completed
project. These are some of the characteristics of the ROR platform which make
it one of the simplest to be utilized by the developers of today.
