What those PHP guys are unable to understand, is that all the coolness and beauty of Sinatra comes from the lack of () {} $ and other meaningless (it this context) symbols and words, like function and echo.
i think "those php guys" are well aware that their language is not ruby and care more about getting work done than whether they have to type dollar signs and brackets.
- c00p3r 16y agoGetting work done is a different goal, and, indeed, an understanding that it is impossible to repeat Sinatra isn't required for getting work done.
- dhotson 16y agoI think c00p3r makes a valid point. PHP makes it very hard to write "beautiful" frameworks like Sinatra. There's a whole bunch of crufty looking stuff in PHP that is unavoidable. That doesn't stop me from writing PHP and getting-shit-done. That's an entirely different argument though.
