- soneca 14y agoI was non-tech founder deciding how to outsource my MVP. RoR was very popular in SV, but there wasn't many developers in Brazil neither for RoR or Python, at least comparing to PHP and .NET. PHP was out because of scaling issues (as I was told at the time), so there was ASP.NET with a significant number of developers and good reviews about scaling and suport. And all bad reviews of .NET had, 99,9% of times, only two topics: "I hate Microsoft" and "You will have to pay a lot of things to develop in it". Well, I don't hate MS and I was applying (and eventually succeed) to its BizSpark program, so I would not pay for anything, including hosting infrastructure. So it seemed a good choice then.
