During that time I was operating the business while trying to figure out a new owner I was looking at trying to stream line a process that had a pain for many years.
It was a fairly simple problem to solve and I had used multiple CRMs geared towards our industry, but none of them had this one feature. So what did I do? I decided prototype an application to see solve my frustration. As a business owner&amp;hellip;terrible idea, but as a programmer..typical!
Normally, I would reach for my normal dotnet stack, but I wanted to try out the new Rails 8. This has been the inspiration for the recent Rails posts, and now I want to share the project.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>Rails Experience</title><link>https://andrewrady.github.io/blog/posts/rails-experience/</link><pubDate>Wed, 04 Dec 2024 20:43:38 -0700</pubDate><guid>https://andrewrady.github.io/blog/posts/rails-experience/</guid><description>&lt;h1 id="my-experience-building-a-rails-app-as-a-dotnet-developer" class="relative group"&gt;My Experience Building A Rails App As A Dotnet Developer &lt;span class="absolute top-0 w-6 transition-opacity opacity-0 -start-6 not-prose group-hover:opacity-100"&gt;&lt;a class="group-hover:text-primary-300 dark:group-hover:text-neutral-700" style="text-decoration-line: none !important;" href="#my-experience-building-a-rails-app-as-a-dotnet-developer" aria-label="Anchor"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h1&gt;&lt;p&gt;I use to write a lot of rails applications when I was newer as a developer. Fast forward almost a decade later with professional experience, I thought I would look into rails again.
I&amp;rsquo;ve slightly followed the progression of rails over the years and agree with some points of DDH&amp;rsquo;s. Main about JavaScript and how it&amp;rsquo;s become overly complex for web apps. Although, I personally love static type languages.
I know shocker - coming from a dotnet developer.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
