Ruby on Rails is a server-side web application framework written in Ruby that follows the Model-View-Controller (MVC) architectural pattern. MVC separates the application into three interconnected components:
Model: Manages data and business logic, interacts with the database
View: Handles presentation layer and user interface
Controller: Processes requests, coordinates between Model and View
