Sinatra Reviews & Product Details

When I need to create a web application without any complications, Sinatra helped me and it was very nice to work with this software, its installation is not complicated, the barriers to learn it to use are simple in difference with other frameworks, and something that stands out this software and what I like is its emphasis for creating applications without making a minimum effort, it integrates with the user in a spectacular way.

Try to implement synatra in a large project to create multiple applications, and it usually falls or hangs up, so it's not very good when it comes to quite broad projects. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sinatra makes ruby dramatically more useful with its incredibly easy post and get extensions as well as the simple inclusion and transmission of parameters. Traditional Ruby on Rails (ROR) meant that our team had to do a lot of running around to get our in-house restful-js api to post to our payment server. What's most notable about Sinatra is just how easy it is to setup. While our previous payment api took almost a year to develop and pass quality control testing, Sinatra was completed in roughly 5 months, which was a dramatic but very welcome change from our previous implementation.

Quite simply (as you can tell by the name), the framework can be a bit cheesy at times, making several references to Frank Sinatra before, during, and after compilation. However, this is dramatically outweighed by the functiontionality of the contract. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

No magic, no unicorns, just simply create your simple paths and get your web app or simple API done.

If what you are looking for is a simple, yet elegant solution, but Rails is way too much, then Sinatra is for you. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Remember, it is for simple web services or web pages, but if you are scaling your Sinatra app for running daemons, many asynchronous jobs, complex UI, etc. Then, Sinatra might not be a good fit.

It was made for simple API services with none-complex database operations, anything bigger than that might require specialized software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sinatra is a smaller Ruby Model-View-Controller (MVC) framework for Ruby projects. I have used Sinatra for smaller web based projects that I need to bootstrap quickly to get an iearly application running. Sinatra is very easy to get going and make things work and it has a few nice built in tools like a Router to help the developer get the project up and running quicker.

I guess the only thing I dislike about Sinatra is that in a way it is a limited toolset framework, which I believe is by design though. If I need more of a toolset, I will use Ruby on Rails but RoR called be too heavy for smaller projects, overkill. Sinatra to Rails is like Lumen to Laravel in PHP.

Sinatra is an extraordinary structure for the individuals who definitely realize Rails yet need to complete a basic API or single page application.

It goes directly to the point of what you need to do. It is likewise easy to utilize and very easy to use. It is additionally very reasonable.

Sinatra is generally genuinely clear disclosing to you what's up and in which point, which is unquestionably not basic to advanced stages. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I have no Problem with it, incredible Application Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sinatra is a DSL for quickly creating web-applications in Ruby with minimal effort. It’s small and flexible in nature. The web application framework is very easy to use, and it’s quite user friendly. The best thing about this is that it does not follow the typical model-view-controller pattern used in other frameworks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The Routes are matched in the order they’re defined and not otherwise. This is troublesome, and the work gets delayed. Gem install thin is always required to run Sinatra. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sinatra is an outstanding decision when you want something as packed with features like Rack, but lightweight like Rails. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Outside of basic Ruby libraries, there is a dearth of libraries stacked atop Sinatra; so I wish this was more popular in that regard--that would mean a larger community with a lot more libraries. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

the routing is easy to use. the erb templates are useful to use with sinatra that connects the backend with the frontend. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The documentation isn't very good. there aren't any examples just example functions if they could show example code that would be better. They should adopt a refresh system without having to restart sinatra after every change in code. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

agile and lean, not much baggage, very light assembly Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

limiting because it's so lean but that's kind of the point so... Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like that Sinatra is a fairly straightforward platform with low overhead, thoughtfully put together and extremely user-friendly, even by Ruby standards. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Projects built with Sinatra don't necessarily scale as well as they would on Rails, and of course Rails offers a much more robust feature set. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
