LIFE OUTSIDE RAILS Created by / Stephen McCullough @swmcc
NOT ANTI RAILS This isn't an anti rails talk. I
just think there is more to Ruby than just rails.
WHAT COMES TO MIND THEN?
SINATRA
PADRINO
JEKYLL
GRAPE
CUBA
CAMPING
WHAT, NO FRAMEWORKS?
WHAT IF I TOLD YOU THAT... You don't have to
use a fecking framework!
WHAT I USE RUBY FOR CSV Parser Task management Static
Generator ActiveRecord Building libs for a legacy system
I ALSO USE RUBY FOR... Prototyping (jekyll) API Creation (grape)
Sys Admin scripts
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
IS THERE MUCH SENSE IN NOT USING RAILS? No (simples)
THE END BY STEPHEN MCCULLOUGH / SWM.CC
