No Conventions vs Rails Conventions
Developers should consider No Conventions in small, experimental, or rapidly evolving projects where strict rules might hinder innovation or speed, such as prototyping, hackathons, or personal projects meets developers should learn rails conventions when working with ruby on rails to leverage its productivity benefits, such as faster setup and reduced decision-making overhead, especially in rapid prototyping or team-based projects. Here's our take.
No Conventions
Developers should consider No Conventions in small, experimental, or rapidly evolving projects where strict rules might hinder innovation or speed, such as prototyping, hackathons, or personal projects
No Conventions
Nice PickDevelopers should consider No Conventions in small, experimental, or rapidly evolving projects where strict rules might hinder innovation or speed, such as prototyping, hackathons, or personal projects
Pros
- +It's useful when team members have diverse preferences or when integrating disparate technologies that don't align with standard conventions, allowing for tailored solutions without overhead
- +Related to: agile-methodology, extreme-programming
Cons
- -Specific tradeoffs depend on your use case
Rails Conventions
Developers should learn Rails Conventions when working with Ruby on Rails to leverage its productivity benefits, such as faster setup and reduced decision-making overhead, especially in rapid prototyping or team-based projects
Pros
- +They are essential for maintaining consistency across Rails applications, enabling easier code maintenance and collaboration, and are particularly useful in scenarios like building RESTful APIs or full-stack web applications where Rails' defaults align well with common requirements
- +Related to: ruby-on-rails, mvc-architecture
Cons
- -Specific tradeoffs depend on your use case
The Verdict
Use No Conventions if: You want it's useful when team members have diverse preferences or when integrating disparate technologies that don't align with standard conventions, allowing for tailored solutions without overhead and can live with specific tradeoffs depend on your use case.
Use Rails Conventions if: You prioritize they are essential for maintaining consistency across rails applications, enabling easier code maintenance and collaboration, and are particularly useful in scenarios like building restful apis or full-stack web applications where rails' defaults align well with common requirements over what No Conventions offers.
