DesktopRails Framework is a software that allows you to easily develop desktop applications using the Ruby on Rails web framework. It provides a streamlined development process, enabling you to build powerful and responsive apps quickly and easily.
The main objective of this framework is to provide a Model-View-Controller architecture for your applications that will make your code easy to write and maintain. It follows the philosophy of "Don't Repeat Yourself (DRY)" and is designed to allow Test Driven Development (TDD) on your applications. The framework enforces separation of concerns between the business logic and User Interface, making it possible to write code that tests your application automatically. You can write unit tests that are also a kind of acceptance test, as they test parts of your business logic, not only methods and classes.
One of the significant advantages of working with DesktopRails is that you can make your Windows native applications (using Windows.Forms) run on Linux, or make them Linux native (using Gtk#) with minimum effort. WPF is also supported. To clarify, DesktopRails is a fork of the Boxerp project.
In conclusion, if you're looking for a user-friendly, reliable, and flexible framework to create desktop applications, then DesktopRails is worth considering. Its unique features and easy-to-use interface will be of significant benefit to developers of all levels of expertise.
