While I like ruby, your post is completely based on your experience. I have a Koa (express.js successor) with TypeScript and it's rock solid and since I don't like rails that much, I feel pretty loose there.
- spricket 8y agoAgree 100% Koa from the original devs of Express is amazing. Rails is worthless for modern webapps, there's just much better options

Rails or Django are several levels higher - they include auth, database interaction, CRUD etc. I'm not saying that either approach is better, just that the comparison seems strange.

It certainly comes with some facilities for getting off the ground: https://api.rubyonrails.org/classes/ActiveModel/SecurePassword/ClassMethods.html https://api.rubyonrails.org/classes/ActiveModel/SecurePasswo...
