On Wednesday in Frankfurt at the PHP International Conference I gave a fairly general talk on issues in Web frameworks. I had fun making a graph comparing Java, PHP, and Rails, and you might enjoy it too. [Update: Theserverside.com has a grossly inaccurat
After listening to this weeks Ruby on Rails podcast where Geoffrey Grosenbach interviewed Bruce Tate, it got me to thinking about why Ruby on Rails appeals to me. For me as a Java person, the real appeal of Ruby lies in Rails and here’s why:
I get a lot of emails about packing and distributing Rails applications with Tar2RubyScript and RubyScript2Exe. It obviously wasn't easy to come up with the steps that have to be taken to transform a Rails application into a standalone application. Since
About "ActionWebService: Web services on Rails" This manual describes Action Web Service, the web services support for Rails. It provides an overview of how the various components fit together, and examples for implementing your own web service APIs for R
This tutorial is not a rails recipe - it does not show you how to make a specific engine, but rather the steps to making an engine in general. In case you want to follow along, but don’t have a ready application to turn into an engine, I suggest creatin
Inspired by ASP.NET’s System.Web.UI.WebControls.Calendar, this calendar helper allows you to draw a databound calendar with fine-grained CSS formatting without introducing any new requirements for your models, routing schemes, etc.
“Even for experienced developers, it can make sense to have a generic / base / bare-bones application from which to work… here are several barebones Rails apps that might provide a good base for your own template…”
I've been doing some quick and dirty shootouts running the Petstore app from TW-commons RubyForge project. The purpose of this exercise was not to draw any conclusions, but to get a gut feel for the various factors that have significant impact on performa

Meanwhile, development of an alternative to WEBrick was under way, by a guy named Zed Shaw, called Mongrel. It seems Zed just got fed up and decided to change the Rails deployment world with his own bare hands. This is good news for all of us and the best
I've been using git for source code management for over a year now and I'm totally hooked. I won't rave about all the usual reasons WhyGitIsBetterThanX since it's been done already. Instead, I'm going to share how I use git for easy agile development. The basic idea is to never do anything in the master branch except use it to move changes between the remote repo and local branches.
