Ruby is improving performance with time, lot of things are fixed since 2011 and there are still lot of improvements in the future with Ruby 3.0

Ruby made me and is still making me earn more than JavaScript and PHP. To be practical I can build apps far faster using Ruby on Rails than any other framework.

I'm a Ruby on Rails developer, and I loved your insights!
Also, since I was tied to the conventions when I learned rails, I also learned so many good practiced that I can easily reapply to other languages.
Super easy to transfer from rails to python/js/golang etc :)

In all fairness, whether Ruby is popular nowadays or not, real Ruby ninjas know its power. It still helps me rake in $64k/month off a niche SaaS offering...all while I still get to keep my head hair! As a programmer, I don’t think you need to follow the hype and jump on the most popular language bandwagon...you should strive to become the best at one language and have the discipline to follow through. I know a couple other guys pulling in more dough and their Swiss Knife was VB...go figure! Don’t follow the hype!

Ruby is dead, PHP is dead, everything is dead

[sajadtorkamani]

Fair points but Ruby is just a very elegant language :). Show me some Python or PHP code vs Ruby code and you can see the difference!

If you don't like Ruby don't use it. No one is forcing you to.
I just wrote a couple of scripts for a company in Holland, refactored their website and earned 45k for 2 weeks work (with an ongoing contract).
Ruby 3.0 is coming in December with static typing and will knock many languages out of the water.

'Hey' was just released and was written in Ruby and Rails. It's looking great so far.

Ruby is alive and well with jobs, community, a growing list of maintained gems and excellent documentation.

Stop posting crap Stefan.

"Jobs?" I don't use Ruby for jobs!

I just use Ruby.

[piotrtalarczyk]

When I was teenager i learned Pascal, Basic, VBA, C/C++, some JavaScript, PHP. Then the way of my life took me to do other things. In that time I searched some language for me. It had to be simple ed interpreted. I chosen Ruby and still use it for my scripts. I don't see how I can switch to something else. Maybe it's non perfect, but I love it.

0:42 Stefan's been dating so many women, both while writing PHP and Ruby, that he's been able to pull stats on how attracted women are to him, depending on what language he writes! 😜😂

It's important to learn Ruby so that you can simultaneously talk about how much you hate it and how much you wish some other language was more like it.

[kamalpandey]

Rails was dead in 2016, It was dead in 2017, It was dead in 2018, It was dead in 2019 and finally it's dead in 2020 and more interestingly I am using it.

Why Google have Kotin and Flutter/Dart simultaneously? Is there a reason to learn Flutter/Dart in 2020?

[NathanielBabalola]

You can't use Rails for microservices?
Can someone suggest a Node.js framework with less configuration with a good market share (not adonis.js it doesn't have a good market share), there's so much to setup on a bare express application,

[calvinebun-amu]

I observed that are are less (almost non-existent) entry-level ruby/rails roles and a lot more entry level roles for PHP/Laravel

[AlphaFoxDelta]

A very accurate and succinct summary of the language in my opinion. I've always thought that Ruby, and the reason I treasure it so much, is best as a tutorial/beginners language and framework. As web app development can be horribly intimidating, it has great value in helping new programmers in building RESTful applications, and that is invaluable from that perspective. Really nailed it with Convention over Configuration.

Stef you are KILLING me :D. Greetings, a full time ruby/rails dev from Germany (yes, we have almost no ruby jobs here in Germany, but the job is nice so far. I am honing my javascript /c# skills with side projects, CANT DEPEND ON RUBY ON THE LONG RUN)

[alicoder]

Hi . I have a question . Would you mind answering it?? I am learning to be a web developer and I know that I should learn Java script . How much JS knowledge should I have at least to build a website and make money🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️ . (It would be better if you mention the topics) . Thank you all😁😁😁

[johnathonmarshall]

Stef, your content is great. Thanks for sharing your wisdom and life experience to educate people like me. This is one of dozens of videos of yours I have watched. Thanks again
^My first youtube comment ever.

I looking for resources to understand How Rails works under the hood!
Can anyone suggest some resources.
Going through the source code is very tedious.
For ruby programming I have resources that goes under the hood working but I am unable to find any for Rails...can you help on that?
I am looking for WHY things work the way they do in Rails.
