  1. Django

    The Web framework for perfectionists with deadlines.

    > Django isn't independent, depends on lot many packages

    It is quite independent. There are between two and four dependencies: asgiref, sqlparse, tzdata on Windows only [0], and typing_extensions on <3.11 [1]. There are some optional dependencies (argon2-cffi, bcrypt, and a database library like psycopg2), but they are small and mostly self-contained.

  3. asgiref

    ASGI specification and utilities

  4. Capybara

    Acceptance test framework for web applications

  5. crystal

    The Crystal Programming Language

  6. turbo

    The speed of a single-page web application without having to write any JavaScript (by hotwired)

  7. SailsJS

    Realtime MVC Framework for Node.js

    I was just talking about this topic of whether we really has any Rails-influenced JS frameworks out there in the wild. And I struggled to come up with anything off the top of my head other than Sails.js [1]. RedwoodJS looks interesting, what about it in particular do you find exciting?

  8. rbs

    Type Signature for Ruby

  10. sorbet

    A fast, powerful type checker designed for Ruby

  11. runner

    The Runner for GitHub Actions :rocket:

    C# is used for Actions: https://github.com/actions/runner, and Go is used a lot for internal services. There is no traction rewriting our monolith in C#.

  12. Pry

    A runtime developer console and IRB alternative with powerful introspection capabilities.

    https://pry.github.io/ - also a lot of features from Pry have made it into the default IRB these days, but I still use pry. I don't know the equivalent commands in IRB.

  13. tapioca

    The swiss army knife of RBI generation

    Have you tried https://github.com/Shopify/tapioca with Sorbet? Typing in general has ways to go sure, but I find this combination quite usable in my day to day.

NOTE: The number of mentions on this list indicates mentions on common posts plus user suggested alternatives. Hence, a higher number means a more popular project.
