  • 16 Best Ruby Frameworks For Web Development [2024]
    6 projects | dev.to | 11 Mar 2024
    With a clean architectural design and a primary object methodology, Hanami is counted among the best ruby frameworks that have gained popularity as an alternative to Rails. Hanami is “sorted” in design and provides small files that can be used independently to create a project stack. Hanami is lightweight and consumes fewer resources claiming 60% lesser memory than other big Ruby frameworks.
  • Is Ruby a dying language?
    2 projects | /r/ruby | 5 Dec 2023
    No, it's just no longer over-hyped. Ruby is settling into being a mature production language, similar to Python, Java, .NET, C++, etc. As you can see from the RedMonk 2023 data Ruby is very much still alive with tons of repositories on GitHub. Besides Shopify, GitHub is another big Ruby/Rails shop. Also, besides Rails, there are other new and upcoming projects like Hanami, DragonRuby, and Ronin.

  • Enhancing development with REPLs - A practical guide
    6 projects | dev.to | 3 Sep 2023
    On all my application tutorials I start by setting up an application level REPL, it's basically a console script that loads all the files inside your project, if you're using a framework like Ruby on Rails or Hanami you already have a console by running the command console also.
  • Why are there so many Rails related posts here?
    6 projects | /r/ruby | 7 May 2023
    This is something that kind of annoys me; there's even a /r/rails sub-reddit specifically for Ruby on Rails stuff. Understandably Rails helped put Ruby on the map. Before Rails, Ruby was just another fringe language. Rails became massively popular, helped many startups quickly build their Web 2.0 sites, and become successful companies (ex: GitHub, LinkedIn, AirBnB, etc). Like others have said, "Rails is where the money is at". However, this posses a problem for the Ruby community: whenever Rails becomes less popular, so does Ruby. I wish the Ruby ecosystem wasn't so heavily centralized around Rails, and that we diversified our uses of Ruby a bit. There's of course Sinatra, dry-rb, Hanami, Dragon Ruby, SciRuby, and a dozen security tools written in Ruby such as Metasploit, BeFF, Arachni, and Ronin.
  • Two months into learning Ruby, it is the most beautiful language I ever learned
    5 projects | /r/ruby | 25 Feb 2023
    Welcome! Ruby isn't exactly "dying", but the hype/popularity is definitely fading. This is primarily because Ruby is no longer "new", most of Ruby's popularity came from Rails, and now Rails is no longer the "new hotness". However, Ruby still has lots of awesome features and lots of awesome other libraries and frameworks, such as the new fancy irb gem that uses reline, nokogiri, chunky_png, the async gems, Dragon Ruby, SciRuby, Ronin, and the new Hanami web framework.
  • OOP vs. services for organizing business logic: is there a third way?

    Data Oriented Web Development with Ruby (upcoming book) by Peter Solnica, who is on the Hanami core team. Learning Hanami wouldn't be a bad idea either.

  • Writing a web application in pure Ruby (no framework)?
    2 projects | /r/ruby | 12 Feb 2022
    If it’s just an issue with Rails, then might I suggest looking at https://hanamirb.org - it’s a framework, but one built from the lessons learned from rails and all who followed.
