   The most productive web framework

   Yes, there are other more trending frameworks; however, nothing reaches the productivity of Rails. It's simply unbeatable if you have a small team.

   For example both SaaSHub and LibHunt were built on Rails.

   🏁 Competitors: Django, Laravel

• _M2dir: Treating mails as files without going crazy

  Pharo/SmallTalk seem to also explore the ideas akin to this. (https://pharo.org/) to be fair the current state of affairs is similar enough with file extensions + mime info if you squint hard enough and pretend that app and systems folders files don't exist but it's held with pinky promises. - Source: Hacker News / 15 days ago

• Enlightenmentware

  Smalltalk and as a particular case Pharo is an example of this for me. (https://pharo.org/). When I was in uni a paper that I always came back to was Licklider's 1960s paper on human-computer symbiosis (https://worrydream.com/refs/Licklider_1960_-_Man-Computer_Symbiosis.pdf) "[...]to enable men and computers to cooperate in making decisions and controlling complex situations without inflexible dependence on... - Source: Hacker News / 17 days ago

• Why don't schools teach debugging, or, more fundamentally, fundamentals?

  I think in part it's because the idea that programming is text and math-based is too ingrained in society. For example, we talk about programming languages. But IMO there are also programming systems such as Smalltalk [1]. I've programmed 2 years professionally in it, currently looking for an engagement in a different language (a curiosity thing, also a resume thing). I think Smalltalk has a lot to offer by... - Source: Hacker News / 5 months ago

• Ask HN: What perfect software did you discover of recent?

  Glamorous Toolkit (https://gtoolkit.com/) and the underlying Pharo (https://pharo.org/). Writing Pharo code (a modern implementation of Smalltalk) in the GT environment is the most fun I've had programming in years. - Source: Hacker News / 6 months ago

  On the back end, we worked to migrate data from Spark (a data processing engine) to a custom, in-house RETS (real estate transaction standard) aggregator, which helped dramatically grow the customer base.

• How We Helped an Existing Product Debug, Grow, and Gain More (Satisfied) Customers

  We rewrote and redesigned the entire user interface, contending with a very tight timeline, and we upgraded the existing code within Ruby on Rails, including all dependencies that were previously unsupported and thus creating security risks for the product. - Source: dev.to / 1 day ago

• Why We Don't have a Laravel for JavaScript… Yet

  And if you’re not familiar with tools like Laravel and Ruby-on-Rails, they are opinionated full-stack frameworks (for PHP and Ruby) with lots of built-in features that follow established conventions so that developers can write less boilerplate and more business logic, while getting the industry best practices baked into their app. - Source: dev.to / 9 days ago

  Ruby on Rails, in my opinion, is the most productive full-stack web framework to-date. - Source: dev.to / 14 days ago
