What professions use Ruby?
NASA uses Ruby on Rails ... Netflix originally had one of the best JSON API serializers (before changing maintainers).

Yet another JSON serialization question 😎
There is a to_json method and recent benchmarks I found are placing a few ms above fast_jsonapi (which is no longer maintained) and slightly faster that jsonapi-serializer (which is supposed to replace fast_jsonapi according to their website).

Is there a path into FAANG jobs for Ruby/Rails devs?
Netflix has definitively had some Ruby in the past as they have the (now unmaintained) https://github.com/Netflix/fast_jsonapi All their ruby repos seem to be abandoned though, so assume there's not much going on there with Ruby currently.

Life in the Fast-Json Lane: Working with JSON:API Serializer
Last week, I covered tricks and tips with handling forms and updating state, as well as sending the data through fetch requests to the backend. Since then, I have been working endlessly on fetching data from the backend, which included building relationships between my various models and sending the data through a Json Serializer made by Netflix, Fast_JSONAPI Serializer (now just JSONAPI Serializer). I learned some new things while working with the serializer and felt I could impart my wisdom this week.

REST API - Modern Rails JSON Serializers - Which Ones To Use?
After googling and reading some articles, I found that there are a lot of blogs related to Fast JSON API which is now deprecated and kind of replaced by JSON:API Serializer. These gems are following JSON:API specification and force our API response to meet this specification standard.

Can I setup a React Native/Rails project the same way I would setup a React/Rails app, or should I expect major differences?
Your RN app will be making http requests to your server, so it doesn't really matter what backend language/framework you use. If your React work was also utilizing http requests to fetch data, then there shouldn't be much of a difference. If your backend is a simple JSON api, checkout Grape. You can tack it on to any existing Rails app.

16 Best Ruby Frameworks For Web Development
Grape is a REST-like microframework written in Ruby programming language. Grape is also considered among the best ruby frameworks and can be used to run on top of Rack or can be used to complement the existing web application frameworks such as Sinatra or Rails. The latter can be done through the DSL-based REST-API for communication. The Grape ruby web framework facilitates efficient and meaningful APIs working in the web application domain.
