Why do we choose Ruby on Rails solutions?

Why do we choose Ruby on Rails solutions?

At Railsformers, we run all web applications that use the model-view-controller architecture in the Ruby on Rails framework. This software not only makes building applications very simple and straightforward, but it's also fun for us. We ranked a nice fifth in the global "Top 20+ Ruby on Rails companies in 2019" ranking by the TechReviewer analytics center.

Why do we do Ruby on Rails?

  • Fast development – You can build efficient web applications using Ruby on Rails programming tools. In practice, the speed of development of projects is 30-40% faster than any other programming language or framework.
  • Flexibility – The platform allows developers to update applications quickly and easily.
  • Freedom of use – Apps are cross-platform and compatible with various platforms, including iOS and OS X.
  • Productivity – Ruby is a concise language that, when combined with many libraries, enables productive development. Some experts say it is the most productive language ever.

Additional advantages include the fact that applications developed in this way are executable directly from the browser, so no additional programs are needed. Rails can be connected to anything, such as accounting systems or third-party applications.

Who works in Ruby on Rails?

Ruby on Rails is not entirely for beginners. So programmers who want to develop in Rails must have at least a few years of experience with other languages. They should have an understanding of project development, an understanding of programming principles, plus an excellent understanding of web development in general. These are the main reasons why the average age of an aspiring Rails programmer is 25-28 years.

Who uses Ruby on Rails?

The biggest company websites using Rails are Apple, Oakley, The New York Times, Twitter, Electronic Arts, SoundCloud, Github, and Yellow Pages. In addition, Rails has inspired frameworks on other platforms since its inception.

What do we do in Ruby on Rails?

We make custom web applications, enterprise solutions, internal web applications for businesses and much more. Rails is a very prospective language because if we think about mobile apps, extensions and so on in the future. So Ruby on Rails is ready for all that, thanks to its MVC architecture.

If you are thinking about a perfect and sophisticated website or a larger project that needs to work fast and handle heavy loads, then Ruby on Rails is the best choice for your business. Feel free to contact our experts as soon as possible for more information.
