Route-First Rails Development (code.hireart.com)

In case someone is wondering (like I did) what the shallow: true means in that context, see http://guides.rubyonrails.org/routing.html#nested-resources (subsection 2.7.2).

Somewhat OT, but I've come to think that the rails routing system is one of the weakest parts of the framework. It can be both obscure and precious at times, and I've never found the two-way map maintained for link generation worth the abstraction costs.

Something closer to sinatra, where routes are more explicit, but with a bit more high-level functionality would be easier for me to deal with.

While the intentions may be good to provide you good services, the fact is no one is watching them -- Where is privacy and security now?
