Thanks! Do you need something more than what's in the README[1], or do you mean I should have linked it from my post?

This has come at a time I'm looking at Grape mounted in a Rails app for an API layer. Is there a simple way to explain to those of us with less API building experience what the pros/cons are of using rails-api over something like the Grape gem?

It's the exact same as Sinatra vs. Rails: build it all yourself vs. using a framework that has it built for you.

Just the link would have been nice, I'm not jumping on raiks api right away, but skimming the getting started guide of something new usually helps me figure out if I want to use it or not in the future.

Roger. I'll add one, thanks.
