seeking online education, unlike in the
conventional learning method. You can
complete a course at your speed and pace.
●Large audience: A traditional classroom
might have a limit of students, say 50, 100,

10. Ruby on Rails is a full-stack framework that
can work on front-end and back-end
designs as it was intended to be- general
purpose. Since the beginning, the RoR
community has been focused on web
development with Ruby on Rails. However,
over the years of its growth, RoR is used in
varied app development, system apps, CMS,
e-learning, social networking, and much
more.
Some mesmerizing examples of RoR
projects are Google SketchUp and
simulations at NASA Langley search center.
Every kind of business- whether it is small
or medium-sized business or big
enterprises, all are using Ruby on Rails for
web development owing to its speed and
agile characteristics. The most widely used
cases of RoR are web applications- sites that

13. You will be amazed to read Offshore Ruby
on Rails Development and Bacancy
Technology – A Match Made in Heaven.
Here is an example of an eLearning
platform using ruby on rails that we
developed for our client, a publishing
company. “Edumaster” is a mobile
application for teachers and students with
easy drag-and-drop features.
Students can take tests on this ruby on rails
eLearning application, and teachers can
give them scores.

14. Challenges we
faced and
Solutions We
provided

15. Teachers play a vital role in a student’s
learning and development. When
developing an online education application
with Ruby on Rails we were under pressure
to deliver a smooth learning process for
both students and teachers. However,
transforming a traditional system into a
modern digital platform is not a cake-pie.
Our client demanded the online learning
application to be media-rich. Loading heavy
audio, visual, and video files in a mobile
app- is quite a challenge.
Moreover, we aimed to render speedy
access and delivery of assignments to
hundreds of students online.
We designed and developed software as an
application (SaaS) platform where our client
could sell their content packages.

16. We provided various packages with
different bundles according to the price
range. Students can subscribe to the box
that is suitable for them.
We added several other interactive features
in the Edumaster eLearning ruby on rails
application, such as video conferencing, live
chat options, classroom addition/deletion,
attendance, and more.

17. Core Features in
the project

18. Some of the essential features and
functionalities that Edumaster incorporates
for students are:
❏ Easy Access: Enables them to access their
assigned homework and assignments via
their mobile devices and computer screens.
❏ Auto Calculations: The Edumaster app
quickly calculates students’ total marks,
average, and other summations.
❏ Learning Analysis: You can derive your
monthly progress on your course and your
growth analysis.

19. ❏ Noticeable Notifications: The app
reminds all the relevant users regarding any
critical criteria like results, pending
assignments, etc.
❏ Parental Update: With special access and
information traced from parents, the app
updates them regarding their children’s
every minute report.

20. Technical stack
we used in RoR
eLearning
Platform

21. The technical stack that we used for this
eLearning project are:
Front-end: HTML, javascript
Back-end: Ruby on Rails, JQuery, AJax

22. No of
Developers
and Time
Frame

23. Edumaster is an ongoing project since last
year. Since the beginning of this project
development, 2 of our Ruby on Rails
developers are working on it along with a
React developer, Quality Analyst, and a
Designer.
Our client, the publishing company, is
delighted with our work quality, and we
hope this project turns out to be a huge
success and our client meets his aspired
goals.
Our client has received an immense number
of inquiries and monthly subscriptions.
They have made shortsighted profits by
selling Edumaster content packages. They
have marked much more than ROI(return
on investment).

24. Bacancy Technology helped this publishing
company successfully implement their
seeding idea of digitally transforming the
traditional learning methodology with this
smart and interactive Edumaster eLearning
platform using Ruby on Rails.
Our skillful Ruby on Rails developers are
confident to put your eLearning app vision
into reality. Hire Ruby on Rails developer
