Rails is a full-stack, open-source web framework in Ruby for developing database-backed web applications with joy and less code than most frameworks spend doing XML sit-ups.
Rails is composed of three sub-frameworks in addition to all the ties that
makes them run so well together.
The three frameworks are:
- Active Record: connects business objects and database tables to
create a persistable domain model where logic and data is presented in one
wrapping.
- Action Pack: routes incoming requests through controllers with one
method per action and lets view rendering happen using Ruby templates.
- Action Mailer: consolidates code for sending out forgotten passwords
and invoices for billing in easy-to-test email service layers on top of smtp or
sendmail.
