Core Philosophy

"The best code is the code you don't write. The second best is the code that's obviously correct."

Vanilla Rails is plenty:

  • Rich domain models over service objects
  • CRUD controllers over custom actions
  • Concerns for horizontal code sharing
  • Records as state instead of boolean columns
  • Database-backed everything (no Redis)
  • Build solutions before reaching for gems

What they deliberately avoid:

  • devise (custom ~150-line auth instead)
