  This is a very good point. It's absurdly easy to learn, even if you're still learning programming. It must be a doddle if you're already extremely experienced. (This is not meant as a slight against rails. On the contrary.)

    (This is not meant as a slight against rails. On the contrary.) Exactly. Rails is good because it's easy. That doesn't mean that just anybody can write a great program using Rails, though, it merely means that who can write the best program becomes about who is the best programmer, not about who knows the most about Rails.
