Say what you will about Rails, I find it hard not to love, despite having dealt with a couple of large Rails codebases that were woefully out of date and/or ridden with technical debt from programmers who were either unaware of or were compelled to do things against “the Rails way.” I’ve investigated several alternatives that offer significant advantages over Rails, like static type checking or simplicity or security or performance, but I still suspect that I would turn to Rails if I were to start my own web company or any non-trivial web app or API I intended to keep around for a while.
