Myths and prejudices about Ruby on Rails
Project management systems / task managers
Ruby on Rails was originally designed to implement a project management system Basecamp. Also,
Redmine (a popular and free project management system) was created on RoR. Therefore, when working
on Rails projects, the use of such systems is “voluntary-compulsory”. All systems are integrated with
version control systems, which allows more flexible control of project development processes.
There are no Ruby on Rails developers
To begin with, there are developers, but they are less numerous than PHP developers. This is due to the
different entry threshold into the development of technology (usually people get into Ruby after several
years of PHP), which indicates the quality of developers. Good developers are equally scarce in all
technologies.
Ruby on Rails developers are very expensive
High-level developers are really expensive. Moreover, they are equally expensive in any programming
languages and platforms. There are few cheap developers in RoR due to the lack of bad developers
in the community (not without exceptions, of course).
