Does Stripe use RoR? The author mentions the codebase was Ruby, but I didn't see if they talked about Rails.

  It is Ruby but not rails

    Thanks. I wonder what the experience is like working on a very large codebase with or without a framework. E.g. Stripe vs Shopify. Or if the framework is barely noticeable at that scale and doesn't really matter anymore. That's the impression I get for Instagram (which was built with Django).

      At that scale there's certainly a framework and many in house libraries with opinions and patterns. It's just not rails.

      They had their own ORM, and a web framework built on Sinatra. It wasn't as though you needed to reach far for a tool if you needed one

    Do they use zeitwerk?
