[discuss] Sinatra vs. Rails

[codelitt]

Rails is pretty heavy for what this needs to do, however, originally I made the call for Rails just because it had most of the things needed. I don't really intend to migrate (mostly time). I just want to open an issue to allow people to discuss because I know there will be some comments on the approach I took.

Pros of sticking with Rails:

• Rails is common environment
• Easy for most people to spin up quickly (original goal of the project)
• It's already in Rails (dev time)
• May be easier for people to extend

Cons of sticking with Rails:

• One could argue that this is overkill
• Bad example of code simplicity.
