I switched from Ruby on Rails on my side project to PHP.
Building the web app in PHP took me 2 hours – the same thing in Rails would have taken 2 days.
Now i have time to read HN.
- lunfard00 5y agodont worry, php destroys ruby performance wise [1]. Kinda fun that even javascript is faster, apparently performance is only a factor to circlejerk against js [1]: https://benchmarksgame-team.pages.debian.net/benchmarksgame/fastest/ruby-php.html https://benchmarksgame-team.pages.debian.net/benchmarksgame/...
- alifaziz 5y agoSimilarly to Rails, I believe you're using PHP framework?
- progx 5y agoNo, only PHP. The Author uses only Node too. Why should i use a Framework?
- johnchristopher 5y agoIt'd be more interesting to see how you replaced rails framework stuff that need 2 days to build your project with vanilla PHP code that takes 2 hours.
- flippinburgers 5y agoThis just doesn't ring true to me. Rails is very simple and fast to develop in.
