What are the newer more modern frameworks? How are they better than Rails?
- Rust: Axum, Actix Web
- Go: net/http + Chi, Echo
- C#: ASP.NET Core
- Java/Kotlin: Spring Boot 4, Quarkus
- Elixir: Phoenix
- TypeScript: Fastify, NestJS
- Python: FastAPI, Django
I love "Zero to Production in Rust", but that's a pretty long book that recreates a fraction of what comes out of the box with Django. Also, when things come with Django, there's no need to maintain or worry about subtle yet crucial bugs.
By way of example, "react doesn't have a router" hasn't stopped it from becoming the dominant frontend framework.
Their perspective is "Rails? Isn't that like, super old??"
