Discussion on: Pitch me on the pros and cons of your preferred web app framework

[𒎏Wii 🏳️‍⚧️]

My own, Lua-based abomination

Cons

• Buggy as fuq
• Building anything with it has me spend 60% of the time extending the framework
• If something breaks, nobody knows why, myself included
• Standards? what are standards?
• Forget about ever using this at work
• Unstable API would be an understatement

Pros

• Extreme familiarity with the inner workings
• Inherently personalised to my workflow
• Very easy to selectively optimise where needed
• Extremely valuable learning experience
• Lots of fun, even when things break

At work I use Rails, but there's really nothing to say about rails. It works. It's good. It's boring.
