Ruby Web Dev The Other Way

Re:Ruby Web Dev The Other Way by soumyaray on Thursday July 21, 2016 @10:31PM (#12141374)

I didn't like the magic of Rails either, but didn't grok Python :(

I'm much happier using Ruby + Sinatra + Sequel/ROM + dry-rb

I do admit that Rails devs develop considerably faster than me. But I get a feeling the majority of them can't make much more than a single machine monolith. Rails has a way of narrowing many people's technical curiosities. But it probably behooves both sides to learn more about each other.

That's, let's say, very odd statement. Especially keeping in mind how many frameworks in other languages were inspired by RoR.

Well, yeah. People move to other languages and then build a RoR-inspired framework, instead of trying other alternatives.
