I just spent a few minutes watching the intro video for Ruby on Rails, and I’m very impressed. No wonder 37signals has developed very successful web applications just within a few months of each other. I’m wondering, do we have equally simple–but–powerful frameworks in PHP? I think I’ll try to learn some Rails. Google/O’Reilly’s Best Hacker of 2005 David Hansson can’t be wrong.

Rails is the framework right? Ruby is the language? Anyways, I’m a big fan of 37Signals for a long time and Ruby is really hot right now but it is really difficult to invest time studying new platform especially when Java has a similar thing… Struts
Yep, Rails is a rapid development framework for Ruby. Looking at the samples, I admire the “less code” approach they’re evangelizing. Right now, I’m also looking at RoR clones for PHP: CakePHP and PHPonTrax.
It really is a huge leap to learn another framework, much more for a language, but I might if the benefits are clear. Regarding Java and Struts, uhmm, I know nothing about it and I don’t think it’s on my list of priorities to learn soon. Hehe. I’m a “PHP rocks” kind of guy.
I’ve been reading stuff about RoR for the past week or so, wanted to code something with it but we’re swamped with album work. Hehe
