I started with Rails in 05, prior to the 1.0 release. It was a whole new world for me. I had done BASIC, HyperCard, and C up to that point, and the whole idea of a web framework opened up my eyes. JavaScript, with prototype.js, was fascinating. We didn’t even have database migrations yet, you just wrote your schema as a SQL file. I moved to Sinatra a few years later, because at the time the “rails way” was really slow for a lot of things. I still use Sinatra to this day. Ruby is by far my favorite language, and sometimes I think it might be a time to get back into rails and see how far things have come.
