Описание:
Ruby on Rails is a development framework designed to make the creation
of web applications straightforward, well structured, and productive. By
using convention over configuration, it reduces the work needed to set
up an application and leaves the developer to concentrate on the
components that address the problem at hand. That is, the common
repetitive basic tasks are dealt with seamlessly and easily, and
therefore most effort can be concentrated on creating the particular
elements required for the current solution.
The strengths of this framework, that make it such an excellent tool to
create Internet applications, also make it an excellent system to create
business applications within private networks. It allows a developer to
efficiently create distributed applications. Thereby users throughout a
company are able to enter, manipulate, and report on data. This is done
in a way that is easy to roll out and maintain; the resulting
applications are easy to expand and extend.
This book describes both how to create business applications using Ruby
on Rails, and how to create the complete creative environment. This
includes how to support the development process with systems such as
version control and integrated development environments, and deploy the
final product on efficient web and database servers.
