i dont think you can call Pardino a minimalist framework.

Ex-Padrino maintainer here. I would agree - to an extent.

Padrinos goal is to not be in the way of integrating minimalist libraries and it is composed of a set of Sinatra plugins that are minimalist as well.

So, it breathes the mindset, but yeah, it is a stack.

agree padrino is pretty near to Rails, what's the criteria used to determine if a framework is minimalist or not?
From what I can tell, "minimal" == "makes code hipsters' pants tight". YMMV.
