I like Rails. Works well for quick CRUD apps, especially when combined with ActiveScaffold. But trying to dig into the source of the framework is a bit hairy.

I like Rails. Works well for quick CRUD apps, especially when combined with ActiveScaffold. But trying to dig into the source of the framework is a bit hairy. I'm a fan of AOP myself so I generally like to see it, but I always get a bit confused looking through the Ruby/Rails/ActiveScaffold code. Pylons, TurboGears, SQLAlchemy, Elixir and other Python-based frameworks seem easier to grok to me.
