Diving into Custom Exceptions in Ruby
Finding information in logs is a painful activity. Developers often blame themselves for not including more information about errors or how to search and filter. If you are not using any monitoring tools that provide this, including meaningful data could save you in the foreseeable future.

Speed Up Your Ruby on Rails Application with LiteCache
The benchmarks for LiteCache are impressive, with a small caveat. While LiteCache outperforms a local Redis installation for every read operation, it seems like there's still room for improvement, especially for large write payloads.

Luckily, the official LiteStack benchmarks include measurements for LiteCable against Redis, which I am going to quote here.

Handle Incoming Webhooks with LiteJob for Ruby on Rails
Let's quickly look into how LiteJob uses SQLite to implement a job queueing system. In essence, the class Litequeue interfaces with the SQLite queue table. This table's columns, like id, name, fire_at, value, and created_at, store and manage job details.

I'm All-In on Server-Side SQLite
Related: I wrote a piece last week on deploying Rails apps to production on Fly.io at https://fly.io/ruby-dispatch/sqlite-and-rails-in-production/
The work that’s made this possible is:
1. Litestack - https://github.com/oldmoe/litestack
2. Fly.io’s work on the dockerfile-rails generator detecting Sqlite and Litestack in a Rails project, then setting up sane defaults for where that data is stored and persisted in production. This is all done behind the scenes with no intervention required from the person deploying.
3. Servers are overall faster and more powerful
I hope more Rails hosts make it easier and safer to deploy Sqlite to production. It will lower costs and reduce complexity for folks deploying apps.

Extralite 2.0 has been released!
Didn't know that one! The litestack.gemspec shows it's a wrapper around the sqlite3 gem. So, not really comparable...

LiteFS Cloud: Distributed SQLite with Managed Backups
I’m working on this for Rails apps at https://github.com/oldmoe/litestack/pull/12
The idea is that people with small-to-medium size Rails Turbo apps should be able to deploy them without needing Redis or Postgres.
I’ve gotten as far as deploying this stack _without_ LiteFS and it works great. The only downside is the application queues requests on deploy, but for some smaller apps it’s acceptable to have the client wait for a few seconds while the app restarts.
When I get that PR merged I’ll write about how it works on Fly and publish it to https://fly.io/ruby-dispatch/.

Ask HN: What's the fastest and simplest way to prototype a web app in 2023?
Rails is the way to go. The productivity of the Ruby language is insane. It's battle tested for decades and you can easily scale your prototype.
If you want a simple app served on a single host you can try LiteStack [0] so you don't need a Redis/Postgres/Sidekiq instance, just SQLite.
Laravel is also good if you like PHP language.
