The well known web application introduction, this time without the Ruby introduction as the Ruby Monsters already did this! This time it also has a Bentobox.
● A general purpose programming
language
● Principle of least surprise
● Invented by Yukihiro Matsumoto
"I hope to see Ruby help
every programmer in the
world to be productive, and to
enjoy programming, and to be
happy. That is the primary
purpose of Ruby language."
Yukihiro Matsumoto
Ruby on Rails
● Framework written in Ruby
● set of functionality to help write web
applications
– Connecting to the database (ActiveRecord)
– Generating HTML (ERB)
– Pays attention to security
– … and so much more!
● Model View Controller
● You write in Ruby
Where to go from here?
