Alternative to RoR

Yeah, well, it’s more of an alternative for Filemaker than it is for Rails and it’s been around for quite some time now. It has a few drawbacks:

  1. License cost

  2. It’s in Java, and it’s slow as hell on a Mac

  3. It uses JavaScript for coding

On the other hand, it’s a great tool for RAD where you don’t want to waste precious time designing a killer interface. As I mentioned, it’s great for people using Access or Filemaker and want to migrate to a database independent backend and a very easy and familiar front end.

Sorry but I fail to see the point.
