ðRails: Hate it or Love it
Manage episode 253014496 series 1900125
Welcome to Iteration, a weekly podcast about programming, development, and design.
Ruby on Rails: 5 Things we hate 5 things we love. A quick overview of some of the key concepts, limitations, and strengths of the Ruby on Rails Framework.
ðJohn - Convention over configuration
There is a strong "Rails way" this lets you focus on product, higher level abstractions, and move quicker through your day to day. You have less decisions to make.
ðĪŪConvention over configuration
The "Rails way" is stupid, puts you in a box. Sometimes my needs and problems don't fit into the rails conventions.
ðLove: It's Stable and reliable.
No "shiny object" syndrome that you get in the JavaScript community.
ðĪŪHate: It's boring and doesn't keep up with modern trends. [jp]
I never know the right balance of "React" sprinkles inside of my .erb files. Sometimes it feels like I should just do a full blown SPA? Plus, sometimes making a form in React is so much easier for me than remembering all of the weird Rails Form shit
ðLove: It's server rendered.
ðĪŪHate: It's server rendered.
ðLove: It' just Ruby
ðĪŪHate: Forms
Why are forms so damn complicated? Maybe I just don't have a good understanding of data modeling...
ðLove: Old tutorials for things are mostly still relevant
ðĪŪHate: Rails devs are just "Script kiddies"
