Evaluating Web Development Frameworks: Rails and Django (part 1/15)
This white paper, presented here as a series of blog articles, is a technical manager's guide to evaluating web development frameworks, with a detailed review of Ruby on Rails and the Django (Python) projects.
In this study we establish a list of evaluation criteria and then discuss and rate how well each framework addresses each criteria.
As your priorities and assessment may differ from ours, this report can be used as a road map for your own evaluation.
If you have already decided to use a specific framework or recently joined a team, this report may serve as a high level introduction, providing valuable context for your learning curve.
