I would totally expand "Rails" to "Django or Rails or Laravel or any other well-maintained mature full-stack web framework in the language you are the most comfortable with".

There's a lot of awesome options for boring technology! Even javascript has next.js which is pretty boring at this point, even if it is missing some things.

AdonisJS is also really great, very much inspired by Laravel (which was inspired by Rails)

First time hearing of that, not sure it passes the "battle tested" sniff test here.

No offense, might be a great framework but the gist of the blog post is A) what you know or B) Rails (if you don't know what to choose)

It might also mean that if you know JS then use AdonisJS. Which has become Rails of JS and is pretty old and mature too.

Wow I'm surprised I never heard of it - probably because it's boring and "old" for JS standards... And not backed by FAANG.

Thank you for sharing!

Though I couldn't find out any well known companies using it (re battle tested) but some might just not disclose which is fine.

Yeah, my organization does not disclose, but I can say I've used AdonisJS in production in the financial industry for about for about 6 years now.
