It feels like the constraints/expectations we face building in 2017 are different from those of 2004 (when Rails was created) or 2005 (when Django was created). Both of these predate the iphone (launched in 2007) and the dominance of mobile, as well as stuff like Websockets (2011), 12 factor, immutable infrastructure, distributed systems... It feels extremely unlikely that that if we decided to design a framework with these things in mind we would end up with something that looks like Rails or Django (or some other RESTish/MVC thing), and yet somehow these are the things we overwhelmingly use and recommend. |
