Chapter 1: Introduction
This book describes how the web development framework, Ruby on Rails, can be
used to create small applications and, in particular, applications that form the key
components within business solutions. It uses the example of a customer contact
application to work through the process of solution creation; also providing a
practical description of the steps required. This book not only covers the coding
techniques, but also explains how to build a development environment, configure
host servers, and develop the application over and above its original scope.
