Frequently Asked Questions

Why Ruby on Rails?

Ruby on Rails a batteries-included web framework that handles many common needs of web applications. It has been around for 20 years and is trusted by some of the largest companies in the world, such as Shopify, Github, and Airbnb. Rails is an excellent choice for rapid, secure, and sustainable development of web applications. The default frontend, Hotwire, even comes with a mobile framework, so you can quickly expand your web app to iOS and Android.

What is your green-field Ruby on Rails development philosophy?

We emphasize simplicity and sticking to Rails defaults. We believe that vanilla Rails is plenty for most use cases. This means using partials and helpers for the view layer, SQLite as a database, importmaps for Javascript, Minitest for testing. For apps with a potentially large user base, we're not afraid to reach for Postgres. We use TailwindCSS, as it provides a design system and CSS development philosophy. For the frontend, we stick with Turbo and Stimulus. We avoid Single Page Applications as much as possible, as these add a huge maintenance and performance burden. We believe these choices make for a lean, sustainable foundation for long-term web application development.

How do you handle security, compliance (e.g., GDPR/CCPA/HIPAA), and data privacy?

Our web framework of choice, Ruby on Rails, has built-in protection against common attacks such as Cross-Site Request Forgery, SQL injections, Session Hijacking and more. If data privacy is paramount, we can deploy our apps and LLMs to your servers so data never leaves your premises. Our server providers at Digital Ocean and Hetzner can run GDPR- and HIPAA-compliant workloads as well.
