You'll start by exploring the framework capabilities and principles, allowing you to reap the full potential of Rails. Then, you'll tackle many common design problems by discovering useful patterns and abstraction layers. By implementing abstraction and dividing the application into manageable modules, you'll be able to concentrate on specific parts of the app development without getting overwhelmed by the entire codebase. This strategy also encourages code reuse, simplifying the process of adding new features and enhancing the application's capabilities. Additionally, you'll explore further steps in scaling Rails codebase, such as service extractions.

By the end of this book, you'll be a code design specialist with a deep understanding of the Rails framework principles.
