Rails 6.0 is excellent. For single developer and small team web apps it's pretty much the pinnacle of productivity.

- peter_retief 7y agoThanks for that, nice to know that its still relevant and productive!
- Nextgrid 7y agoHow does this compare to Django? Would it be worth it for me to learn Rails?
- vinceguidry 7y agoDepends on what you're looking for and how much time you want to put into it. What Rails does, nothing else even holds a candle to. But it's hard-won mastery. Rails, when learned properly, enables complete and total dominion over the entire sphere of web development. Nothing else compares, nothing else even comes close. Anything you'd ever want to do with the web, save the kind of scaling that led Twitter to replatform 5 years in, can be done 10x faster and 10x more reliably with Rails. The main bottleneck is understanding. There's a zen to Rails that you have to appreciate before you can unlock its potential. It greatly saddens me that Ruby and Rails has been falling out of favor.
