The One-Person Framework in Practice

Mass adoption in domains beyond just backend webdev. Python is increasingly the lingua franca of data.

Ruby ecosystem is great, but it's not Python great.

Each to their own of course, and not arguing that the Ruby ecosystem is amazing (although I thought so in 2008), with Python’s eleventy different package managers, I wouldn’t call the ecosystem great. It’s one of the main reasons I get bummed out having to use the language. Sure there’s lots of work going on to improve that, but it’s still smattered all over the place.

But what if you're looking for a backend for webdev? Which seems to be the case if we're comparing Rails and Django.

Every Python developer is now an "AI developer" and I can't find a bog-standard python BE dev without paying the AI tax. Having a sizeable but out of vague market of Ruby (or .NET) devs right now at a significant comparable discount is a nice treat.

Have you tried posting specifically for Django/FastAPI developers? I have personally seen many such postings.

Ruby ≈ Rails

Python >> Django

I am a Python and Django developer and I do not even want to do "AI". I prefer to do what I have lots of experience of and know I am good at. I cannot be the only one.
