That's interesting, what you think Django excels that Rails doesn't? Which ones were the pain points in your opinion?

I think it’s just preference really. I don’t think Django is better I just prefer some of it’s choices.

For example, I really don’t like that rails implicitly imports stuff into the namespace.

I like being able to follow the imports explicitly at the top of the file. I feel like there is way less of “where does this come from or what IS this?” when working with Django.

Autoloading is a major source of pain in Ruby, I think.

What function did I import, exactly? Which of the 37 “update” calls did I call when I called it on this?
