Open a Ruby workspace →A language built around objects
In Ruby, data and behavior are bundled together in objects that interact through methods. Beyond object-oriented programming, Ruby also supports functional, procedural, and imperative styles, which makes it adaptable to a wide range of tasks. Ruby syntax is designed to be readable close to natural English, which lowers the cost of understanding code written by others. The language finds use in web development, scripting, data processing, and automation. Popular frameworks include Ruby on Rails for web applications, Sinatra for lightweight APIs, and Hanami for structured web projects.
