Brut: A New Web Framework for Ruby
Read in full here:
If you are building a small web app, it is probably better to use Brut than Rails. Although I hope it won’t get abandoned.

Hmmm. Looks interesting, but I’ve seen a tad bit of Ruby web frameworks to be wary. Hanami was supposed to help move away from teh Rails way, but even it’s creator moved on from the project.
I admire David Copeland’s enthuthiasm and determination, but it’s going to take a lot to get this project off the ground and into the marketplace.
Building and releasing software is the first step and “easiest” part, adoption is the final and hardest part.
That’s the point: many frameworks have come and gone—some even seemed more promising than Rails back in the day. ORMs like Sequel, for example, looked far more elegant than ActiveRecord. But what really sets Rails and its ecosystem apart is their longevity, and of course, the adoption.
I agree. And Rails 8 have new features that allows you to focus on building your application instead of dealing with infrastructure complexities.
