Why use a Rails / Play hybrid? I can understand separating the front- and back-ends, but why not stick to one platform through and through? Momentum? Expertise? Marketing?
The founders wrote the frontend in Rails before I came on board but it does very little work. Really it just handles authentication and captures OAuth tokens.
I imagine we'll move it to Play eventually but right now we're focused on the backend (Play/Akka) because that's where everything really happens.
