About

Laravel is an open-source PHP backend framework that provides all features needed to build modern web applications such as routing, input validation, caching, queues, and file storage.

It includes an expressive templating engine, a database ORM with migrations and seeding, built-in user authentication and authorization, a command-line interface, and a unified API for various cache backends.

Ruby on Rails is a full-stack web application framework that provides the tools needed to build database-driven applications using the Model-View-Controller (MVC) pattern.

It emphasizes a standardized project structure and naming, follows DRY ("don't repeat yourself") and "convention over configuration" principles, includes the Active Record ORM for database interaction, a built-in asset pipeline for managing CSS and JavaScript, and an integrated testing framework.
