There's Sinatra for more barebones things, but honestly, homegrown solutions always grow into a shittier version of Rails. You don't have to use all of the feat

  > You don't have to use all of the features Rails provides. You kind of do. First, you have to opt-out, not opt-in. And the opt-out path is less battle-tested, so there's a lot of skeletons to be found there. Use it at your own risk. If you want the best modern example of a ruby framework which starts small (like sinatra) but allows you to opt into a wider feature-set (like rails), you should give roda a look: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9fukis_VHl4 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9fukis_VHl4
