  • 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 😎
    3 projects | /r/rails | 18 Feb 2023
    There is a to_json method and recent benchmarks I found are placing a few ms above fast_jsonapi (which is no longer maintained) and slightly faster that jsonapi-serializer (which is supposed to replace fast_jsonapi according to their website).

    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
    2 projects | dev.to | 21 Sep 2021
    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.

    2 projects | dev.to | 28 Feb 2021
    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.
