As a Drupal developer, I find it cute how you Ruby guys consider Rails to be massive and monolithic. You know nothing of massive and monolithic :)

- rhizome 13y agoI've been working with Rails for five years, and a year ago I had an aborted project with a friend on Drupal on which I spent about 6 weeks. It was pretty terrible.
- mountaineer 13y agoAborted project on Drupal sums up my latest experience with it too. I have completed a couple over the years though, but after building a few Rails apps, never again will I use Drupal.
- rhizome 13y agoI complain a lot about documentation in Ruby and Rails, but wow, Drupal eats those deficiencies for lunch. It was where I concluded that, sometimes, know-how is held closely as a profit center. It's not even a learning curve thing where the ladder to expertise is long, but that several rungs are entirely missing, if not kicked through by previous climbers.
- dguaraglia 13y agoHehe, you are so right. I remember at some point considering Drupal for a project because I thought Django was doing "too much" on certain things and "too little" where I needed it the most. Fast forward a month and two books later: I rewrote the whole thing in Django in half the time with 10% of the hacks. Drupal is great for what it does, just don't try to make it do anything it doesn't or customize it too much.
- ehm_may 13y agohaha. Yeah, these guys have never seen a java spring app.
