For many use cases, padrino frequently looks more and more like the "just right" solution. Great work and look forward to the 1.0 release! Prioritized routes are a very useful addition.

I find it surprising that Padrino hasn't gained more popularity. For me, it's perfect for the times when you need something more robust than Sinatra, but lighter than Rails. (& being Rack-based it's pretty easy to port a project to either platform if needed).

IMO impediments to Padrino's success:

- Mediocre focus on documentation

- "Marketing"/Evangelism of the project

- Increased Modularity of Rails3

I would love to hear your take on how we can improve on the first 2 aspects. I am not too worried about Rails because I use Rails and I use Padrino but despite the increasing modularity, using Rack/Sinatra/Padrino is a qualitatively different development experience.

But in terms of the first 2. How can we improve our documentation, please let me know, we have a bunch of guides http://www.padrinorb.com/guides and decent (I hope) READMEs as well as a written and recorded blog tutorial screencast. Also Padrino is just Sinatra, so all the Sinatra docs here http://www.sinatrarb.com/documentation http://sinatra-book.gittr.com/ work just as well.

How can we be more effective at evangelism?

Finally I can forgot RAILS! Finally!!! Rails is riduculous: assets pipeline a lot of new stuff but... performances? Why it is slower than Rails 2 ? What mean "merging rails and merb" ? Why on every update I need to rewrite my views because helpers changed like <%= form be <% form then <%= ??? Thanks community for give us a real and much valid choice, Padrino is thin and not slow and havy as Rails.

Thanks!

I use Padrino exclusively now; it does everything I need while also being lightweight, fast, and modular.

Since I haven't played with Rails since 3 was in beta, I'm genuinely curious: from a purely technical standpoint, for what types of projects might Rails be a better choice than Padrino?
