I coded web apps using php/laravel and some todo and blog apps using django . Now using ruby and rails from last three months and i can say that ruby itself very elegant and really make a programmer happy ,#ruby care about the #human #factor in #coding which other languages lack.

Rails is awesome, when it come to #productivity no other framework can beat it .That's why startups and enterprises used it for MVP development .

Github , gitlab ,shopify, airbnb are the example that rails apps can be scalable.

Students studying in universities not had a clue about what ruby and rails can bring to them .

There is lot of negative reports over internet about ruby and rails but i want to add that ruby and rails is loved among startups and web development comapnies .

I'd throw in ColdFusion as a challenger! :D

But I am sure Andrian coldFusion doesn't have active records . I read about coldFusion its really fast and really impress how it work with java .Its rapid but still I think ruby (and rails) is more readable and elegant :). You work with coldFusion?
