-Rails is a web-application framework that includes everything needed to create
-database-backed web applications according to the Model-View-Controller (MVC)
-pattern.
-
-Understanding the MVC pattern is key to understanding Rails. MVC divides your
-application into three layers: Model, View, and Controller, each with a specific
-responsibility.
-
-Active Record, Active Model, Action Pack, and Action View can each be used
-independently outside Rails.
-
-In addition to that, Rails also comes with:
-- Action Mailer, a library to generate and send emails
-- Action Mailbox, a library to receive emails within a Rails application
-- Active Job, a framework for declaring jobs and making them run on a variety of
-  queuing backends
-- Action Cable, a framework to integrate WebSockets with a Rails application
-- Active Storage, a library to attach cloud and local files to Rails
-  applications
-- Action Text, a library to handle rich text content
-- Active Support, a collection of utility classes and standard library
-  extensions that are useful for Rails, and may also be used independently
-  outside Rails
