Ask HN: Ruby on Rails or PHP for MVPs 1 points by Andrewbass 11y ago ↗ HN In general which do you prefer for building MVP's? I can build an extremely basic (and crappy) CRUD app on the LAMP stack but my code isn't very modular. Would Rails be better for rapid modular development?
[–] mark_l_watson 11y ago ↗ This is easy to answer: use the stack that you have the most experience with so you can concentrate on writing a web app, not learning new tech.Personally I like to separate "learning new tech" from "getting work done." [–] Andrewbass 11y ago ↗ That's a great point. what frameworks do you like for PHP? [–] mark_l_watson 11y ago ↗ None. I sometimes use PHP on AppEngine, but use it without any framework except for the Google Auth support.
