Learning Ruby: Things I Like, Things I Miss from Python

This argument has been made for years and I’ve yet to see it really be true.

You can make anything with anything, but Rails is the closest thing to an Aspect Oriented Programming environment that I’ve seen in the wild. It’s not easy to replicate that type of ecosystem with any other framework. I’ve spent ample time on teams using Go, Python, PHP, Java and C#.

There’s just no comparison vs what a small Ruby team can accomplish.

I really agree with this statement. I've never seen anything like Rails in Java/JavaScript land. In Java there's SpringBoot but its nowhere near a cohesive package with a strong online community behind it like Rails. It's more of a collection of libs put together with a good enough attitude.
