Description
Practice ruby programming by scripting or using it in backend projects.
Benefits
Ruby is a highly eadable, expressive language with clean syntax and a strong community, great for quick prototyping. It still powers a lot of legacy web systems and Shopify, the largest Ecommerce CMS.
Example
Tina dabbled in Ruby out of curiosity after seeing how clean it looked in tutorials. She started rewriting some of her automation scripts, and the clarity of the language surprised her. Eventually, she built a small CRUD app with Sinatra, then Rails. What sold her was how much logic she could express in so few lines. It felt like writing poetry compared to some of the verbose stacks sheβd used before. And when she landed a Shopify client gig, that early practice paid off.
