I love Rails as well, and my post was not at all an attack on Rails. It just a matter of "the right tool for the right job." Rails is built to design a certain type of application and is best used for that task. It just sounded to me like you were looking for a full-on RIA application, and there are some really great frameworks out there for building those. Most of them, however, don't really stand on their own. They need a back-end. They need something running on the server-side to take care of managing the application's data. Rails would make an excellent choice to act as that server-side piece. Besides that it's not likely that your entire web site will be built as an RIA. That may be just one small part of the larger site. Rails would also be an excellent choice for handling that which is outside the scope of the RIA. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
