The topic I chose to research is Ruby / Ruby on Rails. I was initially looking for just Ruby articles but it was difficult to find consistent articles that didn't mention rails along with Ruby. I was curious of what I could tie into what I know and how it would be to learn as a programmer as opposed to a new student. I know that Ruby works very well with Rails, ruby libraries are called gems, and I have heard that Ruby on Rails is important to learn because that is a good starting point for Ruby development. I'm hoping to find out why Ruby is an important language to learn as well as how other languages like Python abstract from Ruby.
Ruby is very fast for development because of the many tools it has ready to implement without a hassle. When you add Ruby on Rails into the equation, you can solve problems up to 1.5 times faster than other frameworks. Ruby on Rails has the ability to cache project data from when you first build your application. It also has the ability to cache individual blocks of code or entire pages. Ruby on Rails allows for Test Driven Development as well as Behavior Driven Development. While I don't think that is a feature exclusive to Ruby / Ruby on Rails, it is important. Ruby / Ruby on Rails has many resources available to learn and practice developing in the framework.
