When doing projects on the side, I like to play with node.js or Elixir but when I have to develop projects for paying customers, I tend to gravitate towards Rails...
Few reasons for that:
1. I'm extremely productive and fast at developing in Rails
2. It's much easier for the client to get an app that's develop for a Framework that's been there for a while, is stable and will continue to be there
3. Ruby is a nice language and the principles behind Rails resonate with me (so it's not like Java and Spring which I was eager to get rid of when I switched to Rails a bit over 10 years ago)
That doesn't mean that I don't use node.js for certain specific use cases on client projects... But my goto framework is Rails
