	Why would you use Rails rather than another framework?

	Ruby is a powerful yet simple programming language, but to build an app using Ruby on it's own would still be extremely time-consuming and difficult. Using a framework makes it possible to create an application or website in a very short time as most of the common tasks are already taken care of.

	There are a number of Ruby frameworks to choose from, such as Sinatra (more a library than an actual framework but so what?) or Padrino but Rails provides a robust full-stack framework that makes it quick and easy to build scalable apps, and is particularly helpful if you are developing with a large team of people.

	Some of the main advantages of Rails:

	- Rails uses an MVC pattern
	- Rails encourages use of RESTful routes
