Ruby on Rails projects are developer friendly

Rails was first developed 15 years ago, specifically to make the development process more programmer friendly. This efficient design was adopted by Efigence, as we set unto the journey of becoming a leading RoR development company in Poland. Rails achieves efficiently by adopting a series of paradigms. First of them is the Model-View-Controller architecture, which separates the parts of the program into clear, task-oriented sections. This reduces the complexity of the project and allows for a better division of developmental tasks, ensuring more efficient project management.

Another paradigm is the Convention over Configuration, also known as the Rails Way. Rails prepares various solutions in the most commonly used way, allowing the developer to focus on the tasks at hands, without being distracted by configurations that are usually set to the same values. You can think of it like the auto-focus in your camera.

The last one is the DRY or Don’t Repeat Yourself principle. It reduces code repetition, making it easier to maintain and, most importantly, reduces the number of bugs in the program. Additionally, DRY helps reduce the programmer’s workload and speeds up the development process. This allows us to deliver you the product swiftly and at a cost lower than using other frameworks.

Ruby on Rails is secure

Applications developed using Ruby on Rails are largely built out of building blocks, known as Gems. These Gems are widely used by the scores of developers around the world, who constantly test them for security flaws, fix them and share the solutions with the wider community. This helps ensure that the applications written using Rails do not have backdoors for hackers to exploit, making them very secure.
