Ruby overview
Ruby is a dynamic, object-oriented, interpreted language designed for developer happiness and productivity. Everything in Ruby is an object, and its expressive, readable syntax encourages concise, elegant code. Ruby is the language of Ruby on Rails, the full-stack web framework that popularized convention-over-configuration, MVC architecture, and ActiveRecord ORM. Beyond Rails, Ruby is used in DevOps tooling (Chef, Puppet), API development (Sinatra, Grape), and CLI scripting. The RubyGems ecosystem and Bundler provide rich dependency management. Modern Ruby (3.x) adds Ractors for parallelism and pattern matching.
