About

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

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

Apache Struts is an open-source MVC framework for creating modern Java web applications.

It features a plugin architecture supporting REST, AJAX, and JSON, a robust interceptor stack, POJO-based actions, simplified configuration through XML scanning, custom tag libraries, and modular extensions.
