Does ruby on rails have client side validation like ASP.NET MVC

In ASP.NET MVC you can setup client side validations with the data annotations model which is similar to validations in ruby on rails. However there are unobtrusive javascript hooks created that will automatically wire up client side validations on forms. Is there anything like this for Ruby on Rails?
