I'm not dinging Rails for that. Like I said I've done some successful applications with Rails.
The difference I'd say between Clojure is you learn those from the bottom up, whereas with Rails you learn from the top down. Either way, you are going to have to learn them!
- wyaeld 10y agoWhere exactly does it say that you can't start by actually learning how Rails works, before you build things with it? I think the biases of people who were experienced big system developers before they moved to Rails, are very different from those who started with it, potentially not understanding web app development very well, and then produced something challenging to maintain
- Bluestrike2 10y agoNo, I realize that. I was thinking more about complaints along those lines in general rather than anything you said specifically. Maybe it's just a case of setting unreasonable expectations as a consequence of how Rails in particular is recommended to newbies.
