Interesting! Ruby on Rails is a tech I am gonna surely explore soon as I have seen its growth in industry. Tho, I come from React bg, more of MERN/MEAN. I always ponder upon while building large scaled apps, how shall we decide the stack? What params got you incline to use Rails and not other MVC?

But I have mostly worked on my personal projects which are yet small sized, but want to scale. Have used the above approach but would love to know your views (as you are PRO in product building ;p) so it would be a joy to listen to you upon this. BTW my github: github.com/sohamsshah

Ruby is just a fantastic language to write in and Rails is the best framework (IMO) for building something quickly and easily. Ruby got a bad wrap for being slow but it’s fine for most cases and DB is usually first bottle neck in what I’ve seen that caching can fix.

Ruby flows better for me than JS or Go or even Python. My scaling path from a language level is using crystal-lang.org which is basically a statically typed/compiled ruby. I use crystal currently for @pingly to offload some backend processing. Want to move over more and eventually @Glue too

Sounds cool, gotcha! Have always been a fan of product development, and witnessing a journey of a brand-new app is exciting NGL! I wish there was some glue code open source 😅, would have loved to contribute :) Btw I loved the blog-feature of glue, which makes it quite unique content platform...
