Ruby on Rails, often called RoR, or just Rails, is an open source web application framework written with the programming language "Ruby."
It aims for simplicity and allowing real-world applications to be developed in less code than other frameworks and with a minimum of configuration. The Ruby programming language allows for extensive "metaprogramming", which Rails makes much use of. This results in a syntax that many of its users find to be very readable and adaptible.
