Ruby on Rails

>>56111956

But what about performance and maintainability?

>>56111975
It's good overall. Are there any specific aspects are you interested in hearing about? Ruby itself is pretty good language with a sane syntax, and the rails speeds up initial development of application, it's scalable too, there may be other frameworks that offer better scalability but RoR does what it was intended to do and does it well. The downside is that there aren't as many job opportunities as if you were PHP programmer.

What are good resources to learn Rails if I already know Java/Python?

>>56112404
Me personally started learning ruby on rails looking at 'rails for zombies' and 'rails4 outlaws' vidoe courses, given that I already knew and had experience with PHP and html/css/js. I am working purely at web development and don't know if java/python will give any bonus points in learning web technologies, the one thing I am sure about if you are familiar with programming it will be easier to understand the web applications architectures than if you were a beginner.

why do you want to learn RoR if Django exists on Python?

>>56113660

I like Python for being opinionated and "one true way". Django fails to live up to that.

In that way RoR is probably more Pythonic than Django.

Well I like rails but there is nothing wrong with Django or Grails. But if you want to learn Rails:

First I'd say start with learning Ruby for a few days/weeks. Then learn a super simple Ruby framework like NanoC. Then you should try to understand Rack and Rake (rails uses them both) and then understand the basic folders of a new rails app. Then come back and ask again.

Interesting way to look at it..

But mind that Rails uses a DSL (domain spcific language). This mean you won't understand shit until you take a very deep dive into rails. Some guys are ok with this, others don't.

Performance is good enough for anything other than muh millions of simultaneous requests. As for maintainability there isn't any secret, just make sure you keep your apps updated to the latest versions.
