Why are people saying stupid things like this? I'm doing rails 24/7 for the past 5 years in MANY different projects and I can say its the BEST and very relevant in 2019. I have to deal with other platforms written in different languages/frameworks like php/laravel and I can only pity developers that have to do that by choice.
- Kiro 8y agoI very much prefer Laravel/PHP to Rails/Ruby and I'm mostly working with Rails nowadays.
- move-on-by 8y agoPHP even has static types now. I think Ruby is missing out by not supporting static types. Python has it as well, and there are a couple different type systems for JavaScript- TypeScript being the most popular. I’m not saying all languages and projects need static types- but there are several great examples of scripting languages that have successfully added optional support for static types. After working on several large projects with Ruby, type-less Python, and JavaScript - I have a major appreciation for static types. I’m also a fan of compilers. Anyways, that’s my two cents on Ruby these days. I think it’s a cool language and has a neat ecosystem- but I think it could get a huge boost from static types.
