Elegance meets complexity.
Ruby's elegant surface conceals a deep, intricate core, reminiscent of the complexity within the human body. Its high-level, fully object-oriented nature adds a layer of sophistication to development work, making it both visually appealing and intellectually stimulating.
I love Ruby because at its core, Ruby is an elegant, high-level, and fully object-oriented language also simple in appearance, but is very complex inside, just like our human body.
Efficient
Ship fast with clarity.
Ruby's efficiency in product delivery without compromising code readability is a game-changer. Its human-like syntax streamlines development, while the supportive Ruby community adds a valuable layer of collaboration. However, the job market challenges for junior developers can be a notable drawback that needs addressing.
I love Ruby because it helps me ship real products quickly without sacrificing code clarity. Ruby feels human. I also love the Ruby community. The only downside I think it is that for a junior is almost impossible to find a job.
