- mgkimsal 15y agoI'm not saying it was or wasn't easy to use or learn, but I've had a few people tell me that it was never promoted as such by Rails proponents, only that it was a "better" way. Again, my memory tells me that supporters at the time promoted it as easy as well, but I'm not finding much particular support material from 2006 on Rails (perhaps my google/archive-fu needs work).
