this is like comparing Apache vs Rails.
OCaml + Ocsigen is just a web server with handy features to generate clean modern html. Rails on the other hand has an ORM plus the other libraires to make it a real web framework.
- mfp 18y agoWhat is needed to make something a "real" web framework? Ocsigen/Eliom does handle sessions, routing, page parameters, forms, continuation-based sites, templating and other things you'd expect from a web framework. The main thing Rails includes but Ocsigen/Eliom doesn't is an ORM.
