Here is my biggest problem with the entire article: "Model Driven Framework" My day job is as a Java developer, and I can testify that this is the line of thinking of most Java developers I know. In my opinion "Model Driven" design is exactly upside-down. End users don't care one bit about how beautiful, or elegant, your model code is. They don't want to see a user interface that exposes the design of the model. What users care about is the experience. The interface that allows them to accomplish whatever task is at hand. If that means pulling data from 20 different model objects and mashing them together on a single page, then so be it. The tools the developers use must be able to support whatever presentation makes sense for the end user, not for themselves to make development life easy. This is a line of thinking that Ruby on Rails confirmed for me as a developer. http://gettingreal.37signals.com/ch09_Interface_First.php -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
