Active Record

Active Record is a programming pattern used in software development to simplify how applications interact with databases. It treats each database table as a class, and each record as an object of that class. This setup allows developers to easily create, read, update, or delete data using object-oriented code, making database operations more intuitive and organized. Essentially, Active Record bridges the gap between code and data, enabling developers to work with data as if they were working with regular objects, streamlining the process and reducing complexity.
