* Helper function to simplify conditional classNames.
* Accepts object as args.
* Object item key is the className, the value is the condition that must be met to include that className.
* Either item can be dynamic

Why would you use Rails rather than another framework?
Ruby is a powerful yet simple programming language, but to build an app using Ruby on it's own would still be extremely time-consuming and difficult. Using a framework makes it possible to create an application or website in a very short time as most of the common tasks are already taken care of.
There are a number of Ruby frameworks to choose from, such as Sinatra (more a library than an actual framework but so what?) or Padrino but Rails provides a robust full-stack framework that makes it quick and easy to build scalable apps, and is particularly helpful if you are developing with a large team of people.
Some of the main advantages of Rails:
- Rails uses an MVC pattern
- Rails encourages use of RESTful routes
