Back-End Programming. Why it Matters.


If you are looking to create or update your website, it is important that you understand the technology you are investing in. In addition to standard platforms, Archer is proud to offer a relatively new, cost-effective and highly efficient web development platform called Ruby on Rails (RoR).

RoR was introduced almost five years ago, and since then it has attracted countless developers that appreciate the sheer simplicity of the framework and its ability to create large, complex web-based applications in far less time. Read more on the advantages of RoR.


The Ruby on Rails Advantage:

RoR allows Archer to provide clients with more robust web applications at a lower cost.

Relative to mainstream languages such as Java and PHP, RoR is an extremely dynamic language that allows for limitless possibilities and the potential to solve difficult problems in a clean and efficient manner.

After the initial implementation, it is faster, easier and less expensive to make application updates and modifications relative to other programming platforms.

RoR is an open source framework—there are no fees or ongoing licensing agreements, and no cost for configuration code, version upgrades, etc.
