London Based Ruby on Rails Development

Ruby on Rails (aka Rails) is an open source framework for building database driven web applications. It enables agile development by favouring convention over configuration leaving us to worry about how your application works, rather than how the code works. It also means it is being enhanced and extended every day to keep up with the latest web trends and demands (there are approximately 5 to ten changes every single day). It is actively supported by a vibrant ecosystem of conferences, developer tools, specialist hosts and developers all around the world.

Ruby on Rails is used by many high-traffic websites such as the yellow pages, twitter and MTV.

Why Monochrome love it

To put it simply, Ruby on Rails allows us to deliver projects on shorter deadlines without compromising the quality of our work, and this has been proven on multiple occasions.

Our Ruby on Rails developers can take a project from the conception to a working application very quickly allowing us to show our clients how their website is going to work at an early stage in the project so that their feedback can be used to make changes before too much time has been invested.

Updates and changes to Ruby on Rails applications cost our clients less because they are made easier and quicker by using the framework. This is because it encourages consistent coding practices and introduces a common project directory structure in the underlying code.

Ruby on Rails makes it easy for us to use the latest web technologies. Implementation of Ajax features, RSS feeds and the like are uncomplicated and easy to maintain.

What we use it for

We use Ruby on Rails for what it’s really good at. Building bespoke web applications and websites. Ruby on Rails is incredibly flexible and is suitable for us to use on the majority of the projects we undertake.

We have used it to build content management systems, e-commerce solutions, company intranets and extranets, online tender management systems and many other applications. We have also used Ruby on Rails to integrate with numerous third party services and API’s.
