I mean that’s fair enough, it’s his framework he can do what he wants. But the last two places I’ve used rails it was being used as backend only. I suspect that’s a very standard way to use rails these days and no amount of DHH telling me it’s wrong is going to change that.
- jon-wood 3y agoThat's fine, if you don't want all the frontend bits you can run in API mode, which will skip loading them: https://guides.rubyonrails.org/api_app.html https://guides.rubyonrails.org/api_app.html
- Alifatisk 3y agoI find Rails API-mode hard to work with, integrating the frontend towards Rails crud-like api is cumbersome because of all the endpoints you have to manully work with. While using Rails own templating engine creates all the links and urls for you!
