Faster, better, less painful website development

- [Kevin] Ruby on Rails is a popular, open-source web development framework. It allows developers to quickly build websites that use back-end databases. It takes much of the pain out of adding new features. You can develop faster because it makes great use of best practices, object-oriented programming, and sensible default configurations. This course will explain the underlying concepts of the Ruby on Rails framework. We'll walk through its central components step by step, so that you can understand how they work together. We will learn how to handle web requests and to work with database data. You'll apply what we learn towards the initial development of a content management system, which is a common real world project. My name is Kevin Skoglund, I've been using Ruby on Rails since 2006, starting with the very first version, and I run a web development company that has built dozens of real world Ruby on Rails applications for our clients. I have tried many web development frameworks, and Ruby on Rails is by far my favorite. I'm excited for you to learn how Ruby on Rails can speed up and improve the development of full-featured web applications.
