Padrino is a wonderful project with a great community...I hope it picks up more traction. I've used it for a few things...the only thing that stops me from going all in is that for various gems, there are sometimes differences in conventions between Padrino and Rails that prevent these gems from working right out of the box...usually something to do with the assumption by Rails gems that railties are in use. Usually the fix is a one-liner.

Example: Here's a quickly fixed incompatibility with the geocoder gem:

https://github.com/alexreisner/geocoder/pull/332

Otherwise, Padrino adds a significant, meaningful layer of convention over stock Sinatra, and significantly fewer layers than Rails...but if you mostly use Rails for ActiveRecord, Padrino pretty much has you covered.

Thanks a lot, as a founder I can say that we have the best community... EVER, I'm so happy. Is it true we haven't the Rails or Bootstrap followers, but right now we have so many precious contributions and if you look at the "Changelog" you can see that. Thanks again!

Seconding the gp sentiment. you guys are building a beautiful framework. Hat tip...

Great news, good work guys. I've been following Padrino for a few months now and it's by far my favourite Ruby framework - I find it to provide a very elegant and powerful layer of functionality on top of Sinatra. I really hope it gets more recognition and a bigger/more active community as IMO that is the only area where Rails is unquestionably better. Congrats again on the new release - looking forward to 1.0!

Thanks a lot! Yep 0.12 will be the first 1.0 pre, so should happen soon! Can't wait too

I'm just scratching the surface of Ruby development, and having played with Rails then Sinatra, I'm excited to try Padrino. I just wish there were a wider variety of tutorials available.

DAddYE6• 13 years ago

We are working on that, and also we are near to release a fresh new website, so please add your request of guides tutorials or screencasts here: https://github.com/padrino/padrino-docs

And there is also a good (work in progress) book: https://github.com/matthias-guenther/padrino-book

My personal website is powered by Padrino (http://20bits.com), having hosted it on Wordpress for the 6 years prior. I liked Padrino but the codebase was kind of a mess. I could tell that overall it was very immature.

What progress has been made on that front in the last year?

DAddYE6• 13 years ago

I think a lot, I mean I have deployed a huge amount of websites and others too. This does not mean that we are "error free" there are two main things planned to be refactored so I suggest to check this: https://speakerdeck.com/daddye/padrino-framework-0-dot-11-an...

DAddYE6• 13 years ago
