So, I came from PHP, and CodeIgniter (which is nice, but restrictive with no ORM)I spent the last 9 months trying to understand Ruby on Rails, and I love it.

Here''s the best part: It''s twice as fast as Rails at run-time (so way less hosting and happier customers). As far as I can tell it''s the best framework on the internet, and from the website, I think one person piloted the whole thing: (kinda like the Ruby language with Matsumoto) I''ll give this a college try, cause I don''t have time for all the low level programming. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

If speed is so important, why not use Java, or even C++?

Wouldn''t you?The point is, that there are many more components involved (DB, network latency, caching, etc., etc.) that the fact that some ruby python script runs 7 times faster than Ruby script does not mean much in web context.

Why are you guys so upset. I thought that you would be excited about a framework similar to rails that''s easy to use. I know most of the people here are like me in that they don''t have a degree in programming but love the stuff. By the way, I think that web2py has caching too. It says that you can choose between "memcache", "ram caching", and "disk caching". It says you cab do that to your models, controllers, and views. It also does this thing called "compiling" the code into byte code so that the programs run faster in production. I figured that''s where I''d draw the line, but it was actually easy. I finished creating a contoller and hit save. The I clicked "compile", and then "pack", and it gave me the whole app zipped up so I could put it on a different server. Somebody here should try it and tell me what they think. I thought it was really easy, but there might he some gotchas that I didn''t know about. I''m less than a year into programming outside of PHP. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

You don''t speak for the whole list. I for one am *very* interested in this. Make no mistake -- I love Rails, and I think the Ruby language in general is fantastic, but if -- and it''s a big if -- another framework and/or language can do the job better, I will drop Rails like a hot potato.

Thanks for understanding, those that did. To those who didn''t, I''m sorry I came across as smug. I was just excited. If really interested in hearing some of your opponions about the framework after trying it. I''ve tried it to the best of my ability, but my only knowledge is of shopping carts and cms. Because of my limited knowledge I emailed the creator. His name is Massimo, and said "the bug tracking feature is great be keeping all errors logged in order so you can do all your debugging at one time, but how do I know that none if the errors are from me and not internal?". Hlis response was "the framework is stable and there aren''t currently any known bugs".

I would, but then I''m afraid I''d get religious answers, instead of facts.

Oh, it''s just that somebody who has spent 8-10 years taking programming courses, and teaches 5 level programming tends to probably know a bit more than your average railbird who hasn''t done anything important. The cart API that I use is insane and the guy who built it is the same way (17 years of programming, and a masters). -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

Just look at all the great rails applications on the rubyonrails.org site. Clearly someone who has very, very little experience in the Rails world has written your posts. You probably got frustrated at the fact a method like logged_in? didn''t work because you didn''t include the module.

@nathan I bought the book. It''s really helpful. The free ones in the site to a great job too but the 12 dollar one was more up to date, and better organized. I created a blog with image uploading and displaying in about 30 minutes using that as a reference, and I''m a big noob. As far as cart API, I can''t really talk about it other than to say it''s built in j2ee and the templates are in Velocity. You can build a dynamic catalog of products in about 10 minutes from your own HTML template. If you''d like something close with a little of some of the same freedom, you can try shopify(built in RoR). @nathan: I''d be more concerned that you even have to import the model in the first place (so much for convention over configuration). Web2Py does that for you, using the off-the-wall assumption that if you make a model you intend on using it. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

The absolute worst was actually a teacher at mit. He knew the languages just fine, but his real world coding was just awful. And some of the best developers I know never graduated from college.

@chris: Just so you know, it''s not how well somebody knows code, or what language they specialize in. Great programmers are great because of their big picture knowledge that makes them a good programmer. The code/language is just the means they use to achive what they want. That big picture that you learn from real programming experience. Not from online tutorials and code snippets. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

I tried Web2Py with some code snippets after reading this post the other
day. It actually was really easy.
There is a problem though. It''s written in pure Python, and even lets
you use Python code in the views, or use the template language (which
ever you prefer). That might be good for a Python programmer, but I''m
not used to the indentation requirements. I did find out, however that
the views don''t require the indentation since code is encapsulated
inside of {{write code here}} or {{=variable}}. I''m not in the mood to
learn another language just yet, but I am afraid that Rails will jump
the shark with Meeb.
Here''s a picture of the browser-based admin (where you can write all of
your code (no opening files if you don''t want to, but it does create
all
the typical file structures that you''d expect when you use this admin.
So you can create everything in the admin, and then edit files in a text
editor if you want. the admin does do text formatting though, with tabs,
and code highlighting.
