Rolling with Ruby on Rails
I’ve been hearing a lot of buzz about Ruby on Rails, so I finally got down to running through the tutorial at: http://www.onlamp.com/pub/a/onlamp/2005/01/20/rails.html
Pretty impressive I must say, but the jury will be out until I get to try and build something ‘real world’ with it. This might not be for a while, as all of my spare ‘geek’ spare time is being invested in Umbraco at the moment.
I am pretty sure it would handle any of the web projects that usually land at my feet, but it always comes down to whether I ‘like’ it or not.
Also, I did a brief search for UK based shared hosting packages that support ROR and only managed to find one.
Hi,
I'm considering using either umbraco or Ruby for a new comnunity website, but I'm a bit unsure about what can be achieved with either system. If you have any experiences (pros/cons)or suggestions about either of the systems, please do tell. I've at an earlier point used dotnetnuke, but I wasn't very happy with
1) the rigid front-end options. You can't customize the front-end as you want.
2) the 3-tier layer for data-handling. This layer is tiresome to write and implement.
