Why Rails

Slide 5

Slide 5 text

« » DAVID HEINEMEIER HANSSON Ruby is a dynamic and object-oriented programming language created in 1995 by Yukihiro Matsumoto. Ruby is, more than anything else, a language for writing beautiful code that makes programmers happy.

Slide 6

Slide 6 text

« » Rails, then, is an attempt to mold the beauty and productiveness of Ruby into a solution for Web applications. We’ve sought to adhere to the same core principle that guided the development of Ruby: make the programmer happy! DAVID HEINEMEIER HANSSON

Slide 7

Slide 7 text

≈ WHY HAPPINESS? The Single Most Important Thing™ for a programmer is motivation Happy programmers are motivated programmers Motivated programmers are way more productive Productivity is GOOD!

Testing Rails Applications

Slide 34

Slide 34 text

≈ TESTING RAILS APPLICATIONS Lack of a well-designed architecture is what makes code unmanageable in the long run The only way to improve design over time is overcome the fear of refactoring

Slide 35

Managing Multiple Evironments

Slide 39

Slide 39 text

≈ MANAGING MULTIPLE ENVIRONMENTS Too often the production server is seen as somewhat holy, aka “if it works, don’t fix it” Rails embraces the presence of multiple environments, making them easily reproducible and “less magic”
