  6. JEKYLL

  7. GRAPE

  8. CUBA

  9. CAMPING

  10. WHAT, NO FRAMEWORKS?

  11. WHAT IF I TOLD YOU THAT... You don't have to

    use a fecking framework!

  12. WHAT I USE RUBY FOR CSV Parser Task management Static

    Generator ActiveRecord Building libs for a legacy system

  13. I ALSO USE RUBY FOR... Prototyping (jekyll) API Creation (grape)

    Sys Admin scripts

  14. I ONLY USE RAILS When I have a clear defention

    of success My other team members are happy with the choice Convention over configuration makes sense New code base
