Trailblazer vs Yesod: What are the differences?

What is Trailblazer? A new architecture for Rails. Trailblazer is a thin layer on top of Rails. It gently enforces encapsulation, an intuitive code structure and gives you an object-oriented architecture. In a nutshell: Trailblazer makes you write logicless models that purely act as data objects, don't contain callbacks, nested attributes, validations or domain logic. It removes bulky controllers and strong_parameters by supplying additional layers to hold that code and completely replaces helpers.

What is Yesod? A RESTful Haskell web framework built on WAI. Yesod believes in the philosophy of making the compiler your ally, not your enemy. We use the type system to enforce as much as possible, from generating proper links, to avoiding XSS attacks, to dealing with character encoding issues. In general, if your code compiles, it works. And instead of declaring types everywhere you let the compiler figure them out for you with type inference.

Trailblazer and Yesod belong to "Frameworks (Full Stack)" category of the tech stack.

"Trailblazer allows creating sane, large apps in Rails" is the top reason why over 3 developers like Trailblazer, while over 5 developers mention "Haskell" as the leading cause for choosing Yesod.

Trailblazer and Yesod are both open source tools. Trailblazer with 2.91K GitHub stars and 129 forks on GitHub appears to be more popular than Yesod with 2.11K GitHub stars and 329 GitHub forks.

    Envoy
    Originally built at Lyft, Envoy is a high performance C++ distributed proxy designed for single services and applications, as well as a communication bus and “universal data plane” designed for large microservice “service mesh” architectures.
    Pathfinder
    Pathfinder is a new real-time routing service in public beta. Pathfinder calculates routes for transportation services. These routes are updated in real time as users make transportation or delivery requests. Through our SDKs, applications can subscribe to routes as they change in response to user requests.
    Trax
    It helps you understand and explore advanced deep learning. It is actively used and maintained in the Google Brain team. You can use It either as a library from your own python scripts and notebooks or as a binary from the shell, which can be more convenient for training large models. It includes a number of deep learning models (ResNet, Transformer, RNNs, ...) and has bindings to a large number of deep learning datasets, including Tensor2Tensor and TensorFlow datasets. It runs without any changes on CPUs, GPUs and TPUs.
    Node.js
    Node.js uses an event-driven, non-blocking I/O model that makes it lightweight and efficient, perfect for data-intensive real-time applications that run across distributed devices.
