EDIT: Thanks to Action Dan for some feedback that picks into the niche differences of web application frameworks.
Bear in mind this is a Rails specific post, but I will say that for purposes of building larger applications, the ability to organize and refactor code begins to become a problem.
Rails also offers uniform ways to add and remove helper functions through package management, so I'm actually using the current_user function generated by adding the Clearance gem to my project.
The simple markup syntax is one small reason people like using Ruby on Rails to develop web applications.
Using a helper function (that I didn't even have to write) are two "behind the scenes" benefits of using Rails to develop.
If your confused about the current_user helper I'm using, read more here.
Program on!

ReplyDeleteI don't really see how this is a differentiation, how is this different than any other web application language?
Such as PHP: " < ? = $data ? > "
or Embeded Javascript: "<%= current_user.name %>"
