Ruby on Rails Development

Why Ruby? Ruby has long been popular with startups for being simple, expressive, and fast to build with. It’s a smaller, more specialized language today than it was at its peak, but that specialization is part of its appeal: the developers who know it well, know it deeply. Many times customers come to us and say: “We would like to get results ASAP, but please could you propose something not utilizing Microsoft?” We always answer: Yes, Ruby on Rails. And it always works!

About Ruby

Ruby is a general-purpose programming language created by Yukihiro “Matz” Matsumoto in 1995. It’s best known for its use in web programming, largely thanks to the popularity of Rails. Ruby’s growth has leveled off since its mid-2010s peak, but it remains a mature, actively maintained language, powering large-scale production systems at companies like GitHub and Shopify (which developed YJIT, a performance-focused JIT compiler now built into Ruby itself). It’s no longer the fastest-growing language on the block, but that stability is exactly what makes it a dependable choice for a serious, long-lived web application.

About Rails

Rails is a software library that extends the Ruby programming language. David Heinemeier Hansson, the creator, gave it the name “Ruby on Rails,” though it is often just called “Rails.” It is a software code that is added to the Ruby programming language to enhance functionality. Technically, it is a package library (specifically, a RubyGem), that is installed using the operating system command-line interface.

Rails is a framework for building websites. As such, Rails establishes conventions for easier collaboration and maintenance. These conventions are codified as the Rails API (the application programming interface, or directives that control the code). The Rails API is documented online and described in books, articles, and blog posts. Learning Rails means learning how to use the Rails conventions and its API.

Rails combines the Ruby programming language with HTML, CSS, and JavaScript to create a web application that runs on a web server. Because it runs on a web server, Rails is considered a server-side, or “back end,” web application development platform (the web browser is the “front end”).

If you look at the big picture, Rails is more than a software library and an API. Rails is the central project of a vast community that produces software libraries that simplify the task of building complex websites. 

Members of the Rails community share many core values, often use the same tools, and support each other with an informal network that is built on volunteerism. Overlapping the informal community is an economic network that includes jobs, recruiters, consulting firms, conferences, businesses that build websites with Rails, and investors that fund startups. Rails is popular among web startups, primarily because the pool of open source software libraries (RubyGems, or “gems”) makes it possible to build complex sites quickly.

Ruby is excellent development language for Startups

Why Diatom Enterprises proposes Ruby On Rails software services

Although Diatom is a MS Gold certified partner, our customers don’t always come to us wanting to use MS products – and Ruby on Rails is a perfect choice for them. Back in 2008, a friend of our COO Evgueny, from Palo Alto, California, asked him for help: “We have a startup which is working with multiple APIs providing information from many different types of health tracking systems (Fitbit, MovesApp, etc). Could you help?” The customer already had a Ruby team, but investors requested quicker development of their project. 

By then, we had already been working in custom software development for over a decade, and our network of developer contacts ran deep. In two weeks after that question, our first Ruby developer, Janis Miezitis, joined Diatom. Janis helped build our Ruby on Rails team, and the health-tracking API project for USA health insurance companies became Diatom’s first Ruby on Rails project.

Another reason we favor Ruby on Rails is the availability of skilled developers in Latvia, home to four universities and many colleges producing IT engineers every year. Ruby is the second most popular language here after .NET, giving us access to well-trained, experienced Ruby engineers. Our Ruby engineers now serve clients across the USA, Germany, and Australia – reach out and we’ll be glad to help with your Ruby on Rails project.
