   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

• Laravel 11.x Sanctum SPA authentication with Postman!

  For those who are unfamiliar with Laravel, it is a very popular monolithic PHP web framework similar to others like Ruby on Rails. It is known for its ease of use, rapid development and making PHP development far more enjoyable haha! - Source: dev.to / about 15 hours ago

• How Our Expertise Helped Curb Real Estate Communication Chaos

  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. We also moved Agent Inbox to a hybrid solution using React.js and Ruby on Rails, replacing their single-page-application solution with server-side rendering to improve project stability and speed. (This move came... - Source: dev.to / 9 days ago

• React + Ruby on Rails without any gems

  How to start using React components written in TypeScript using Ruby on Rails as a server with only built-in Rails features? There are a couple of ways we can achieve it with. - Source: dev.to / 9 days ago

• 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 / 9 days 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 / 16 days ago

• Tell HN: My Favorite Tools

  A few apps that are a joy to use: https://ia.net/writer for writing. https://usecontrast.com/ for checking contrast. https://sipapp.io/ for picking colors. https://nova.app/ for editing code. https://cleanshot.com/ for screenshots. https://getpixelsnap.com/ for measuring elements on screen. https://netnewswire.com/ for reading things via RSS. https://panic.com/transmit/ for file transfers. https://usefathom.com/... - Source: Hacker News / 6 months ago

• Ask HN: Best UI design courses for hackers?

  I think the best practical approach for designing UIs is to download (and buy) Balsamic[0] and use that to design UIs. Cut through the nonsense of colours and pixels in the first instance and just lay things out logically and simply. [0] https://balsamiq.com. - Source: Hacker News / 6 months ago

• Build Products that don’t SUCK

  Create a low-fidelity mockup or wireframe of your MVP using tools like Balsamiq, Sketch, or Figma. Or use an easier-to-use tool like Uizard, which also has text-to-design capabilities. Source: 10 months ago

• Starting Design Work in a Spreadsheet

  Just for drawing mock app screens, I have found Balsamiq[0] to be pretty good (you can do a bunch of stuff with the trial version itself). Not affiliated with them in any way. [0]: https://balsamiq.com/. - Source: Hacker News / 11 months ago

• Is there software for building out copywriting for a website?

  Balsamiq has been pretty good for me so far. It's super bare-bones so it's better for copy mockups than actual UX design. It's also a lot easier than Figma. Note that you don't have to use the default comic sans, but I do because it's funny. Source: over 1 year ago
