Question

1. Should I follow edge Rails from the beginning? Or just pickup the latest stable release and upgrade as new versions come about?

2. Should I give users more freedom on authorization settings? Example: fine grained authorization in Django’s admin interface

3. I think testing is a must, but I have no idea which testing framework to start with, Test::Unit/Minitest/RSpec and Cucumber?

4. Haml or ERB?

p.s. Only one developer – me at this time.

Answer 1

1. Latest table release and upgrade on new release
2. I use Devise for authentication, cancan for rights, activeadmin for administration
3. A very big question, me and a lot of other developpers use RSpec
4. Erb

It’s my opinion but there is nothing definitive.

Try it and do your own opinion.
