Frameworks Don't Make Much Sense
Unfortunately I think Rails has poisoned the well here. Too many web devs seem to expect that any environment they code in should have all the bells and whistles that Rails has.<p>My particular bugbear is working with people who refuse to learn SQL as if it&#x27;s some arcane bit of weirdness on a par with machine code. They&#x27;ve only ever used ORMs and have no idea how to actually talk to their data. &#x2F;rant<p>I recently looked at Phoenix, and ran into a few dependency issues straight out of the box. Thankfully, because it reminded my why I stopped using frameworks ;) I started getting to grips with Plug instead... much better :)
