Finally making a decision to go RoR
After a lot of back and forth, I’ve decided that my big project is going to be built on Ruby on Rails. Sure, I could stick with PHP and whip one out relatively quickly. But the quality of my mistakes would be a lot lower than with working with a whole new language and framework. Quality mistakes are what this site is all about, so I might as well go Big.
Next thing on my list is to set up milestones.
Lessons from last night’s back and forth:
- Most PHP script packages are horrible. I can’t say too much about the backend, but the front end is usually atrocious.
- Neuro association works. I found myself feeling ill when I looked at a WordPress admin. This is mostly because of a bad experience with it (and the worst client in the world)
