Description |
What is Sinatra?Sinatra is a DSL for quickly creating web applications in Ruby with minimal effort.
|
What is Rails API?Rails::API is a subset of a normal Rails application, created for applications that don't require all functionality that a complete Rails application provides. It is a bit more lightweight, and consequently a bit faster than a normal Rails application. The main example for its usage is in API applications only, where you usually don't need the entire Rails middleware stack nor template generation.

datapile uses Sinatra
Scalatra (we had to pick Sinatra on StackShare since Scalatra is has not yet been officially added) is the slickest (not to be confused with Slick for Scala) web/applet server framework we've had the pleasure of playing with in Scala.
For all intensive purposes, Scalatra is the Scala version of Sinatra (which for anyone who doesn't know is a Ruby web server DSL).

We use Sinatra a lot. I love Sinatra for APIs. It's really simple, really lightweight. It's awesome.
