Rails has also made it very popular, which means there are many advantages to using it, such as support and work availability. Php is still here and will be for a while but it's kind of horrible. Most of the php work i see is in hacking wordpress sites. Do not want. I have no experience of cakePHP but it sounds like a rails clone done in a painful language, with a smaller community. >

See also http://railsforum.com which caters more to the new-to-rails-and-ruby end of the community. i tend to ask on here and answer on there :) There are also a myriad of mailing lists devoted to specific ruby gems. I'm on backgroundrb, ferret, ramaze, to name but a few. Generally speaking there is a TON of support before you even get to the IRC channels, which i tend to save for when i'm desperate. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
