h1. ActiveRDF

h2. Overview

ActiveRDF is a library for accessing RDF data from Ruby programs. It can be used as data layer in Ruby-on-Rails, similar to ?ActiveRecord (which provides an O/R mapping to relational databases). ActiveRDF in RoR allows you to create semantic web applications very rapidly. ActiveRDF gives you a Domain Specific Language (DSL) for your RDF model: you can address RDF resources, classes, properties, etc. programmatically, without queries.

* ActiveRDF can be used with various RDF stores, more adapters are easy to add
* ActiveRDF uses convention over configuration, working nicely in 90% of the cases
* ActiveRDF is in active development
* ActiveRDF is open source, released under GPL license
