There is very little difference between a rails app intended for html access and a json api. In fact the standard generated controllers include json format responses. Generally I would recommend starting out using the standard rails platform to generate an api before considering moving on to something like RABL, but if you are happy going down the route you have found then that is ok, obviously.
