Go is the new Ruby
31-Oct-2019 1649
I discovered Ruby around the time Ruby on Rails was announced.At that time, PHP was ubiquitous for web development, even though great frameworks didn’t really exist yet. But Rails was a game changer. Convention over configuration was amazing. Name things consistently, and the framework will automatically figure out how to make all the parts of your application access these things, without having to write any glue! Building websites using Rails was a satisfying experience. I also enjoyed the fact that the framework would take care of embracing the best practices, so I can focus on just describing the logic rather than implementation details.But what I enjoyed even more than Rails was Ruby. To people implementing Ruby interpreters and compilers, Ruby’s grammar is atrocious. But as a developer, Ruby is a pleasure to use. Ruby is an extremely flexible language. There are many different ways to do something. This can be a weakness if abused (monkey-patching can turn Ruby into a completely alien language), but it’s also a very nice property.
