Web App Development: Make More Robust Apps With Ruby on Rails 5

The release of the recent version of Ruby on Rails has put a smile on the face of web developers. With Action Cable being the primary update, it has certainly made this as the most preferred web app development tool. But there is a twist in the story, it’s not only about the Action Cable that is making this framework more popular. Rather, there are some amazing updates that have been included this time. This major update will certainly change the way of working with Ruby on Rails.



It’s a very strange fact that even since the evolution of the first version, Ruby on Rails has successfully garnered the attention of the developers as well as programmers when it comes to selecting the best frameworks. You just need five lines of code here in order to define an existing class. It couldn’t be this easier to a developer who struggles every time to write long codes whenever he undertakes a project once he starts using Ruby on Rails 5.

How Does Ruby On Rails 5 Help To Make Robust Apps?

Developing strong and powerful apps is certainly easier with the recent version. Take a look at those powerful features which make it possible.

New API Mode Is Here

Full stack applications not only uses server-side rendering, in fact it’s a great solution to server-side rendering as far as HTML templates are concerned. With the updated API mode, in the recent version, one can create a new API. This will give a skeleton like an effect and make you feel as if you are working on JSON. Still, some other improvements will come in the subsequent versions of this framework. 

Improved Turbolinks

Most the time, web pages take more time to upload. You can prevent this is just by reloading the content portion with the help of Turbolinks. However, that takes more time. Turbolinks 3 has specially been prepared to handle such tasks easily. It’s working is very similar to SPA, which you can do it from the server itself. This feature enables the developer to make single page web applications.

The Brand New Action Cable

Websockets can now be handled more efficiently with the help of Action Cables. It’s the best solution for managing channels used for server side processing, client-side interaction of JavaScript layer and managing the connections across an entire range. The USP of this feature is that the developer can get full access to the PORO domain model as well as Active Record. 

Use Rake Efficiently

One of the greatest confusion, which might arise, is that when to use Rakes and when to use Rails. But with the latest version, you do not need to flip between the two. In fact, you can use all the Rake with Rail keywords. Though it might not bring much change from the developer’s point of view whereas for beginners, it will be a much easier task.

Conclusion

As far as rapid web development is concerned, JavaScript is currently overtaking the technology landscape. On the other hand, Ruby on Rails has realized the importance and will slowly overtake JavaScript with its advanced features.
