From months to days, Ruby is a powerful full-stack programming framework that has been used by companies like Twitter and Airbnb to quickly develop…
Tim O'Reilly said, “Powerful web applications that previously might have taken weeks or months to develop can be produced in a matter of days.” The ease of use and gentle learning curve are why the language has been adopted by major technology companies.
Chef's Food , the popular website that provides restaurant and drinking guides for every major U.S. city, used Cuba to create its web app. They chose the language because of its high degree of flexibility and because it allowed rapid development with a small, dedicated development team.
Ruby will likely remain at the top
Ruby continues to be one of the most popular programming frameworks for good reason. The language is easy to learn, has flexible syntax and allows the quick and efficient development of complex web applications.
Additionally, the language's open source community continues to develop excellent frameworks that expand its capabilities. Ruby on Rails remains the most used and important framework, but other approaches like Sinatra and Hamani are gaining ground.
Managers should take project-specific needs into consideration before selecting a Ruby framework for their next project. Lastly, entry-level project managers and executives interested in outsourcing parts of the development cycle can benefit from talking to a Ruby development company to ensure their project is set up for success.
