9,716 PointsJS + Ruby: Where to keep your business logic
Hi, I've started about 2 weeks ago with learning Ruby and Ruby on Rails. (Don't mind my Teamtreehouse score, I'm using some other sources) Now at first I just thought to learn this to be able to have some backend on which my HTML/CSS/JS projects can run and most of all to have something that can communicate with a database and save my application data.
I might be totally running ahead of myself but it seems to me that you could easily use Ruby on Rails for the business logic of your application as well. Now originally I tought JS would hold all the business logic.
So now I'm wondering; where are you supposed to keep the businnes logic of your webapp?
