About this “Ruby on Rails” Course:

Ruby on Rails helps you produce high-quality, well-structured web applications rapidly. You focus on creating the application, and Rails takes care of the details. Thousands of developers have used this training to learn Rails and it’s wide-ranging, extensive tutorial and reference that’s recommended by the Rails Experts. If you’re beginner to programming or Rails, it’ll give you step-by-step guidance and If you’re an experienced developer, this training will give you the complete, insider details you need.

Ruby on Rails is a framework that makes it easier to develop, deploy, and maintain web applications. From the time Ruby was initial released, it went from being an unfamiliar figure to being a worldwide spectacle; more significantly, it has become the framework of choice for the execution of a wide range of Web 2.0 applications. We still start with a step-by-step walkthrough of building a real web application, and in-depth tutorials look at the built-in Rails structures. This Ruby on Rails Training will give you more information on the Ruby language and takes more time to explain key theories throughout.

Why Rails Feels Right

A large number of developers were unsatisfied with the technologies they were using to create web applications like Java, PHP, or .NET—there was a rising sense that their jobs were just too damn tough and then came Rails, and it was easier. Professional developers writing real-world websites wanted to feel that the applications they were developing would stand the test of time—that they were designed and implemented using present, expert techniques. So, these developers dug into Rails and revealed it wasn’t just a tool for hacking out sites. All Rails applications are implemented using the Model-View-Controller (MVC) architecture and in fact Rails takes MVC further, when you develop in Rails, you start with a working application, there’s a place for each piece of code, and all the pieces of your application interact in a standard way. Professional programmers write tests. And again, Rails delivers. All Rails applications have testing support baked right in. As you add functionality to the code, Rails mechanically creates test stubs for that functionality and this framework makes it easy to test applications.
