Comment on All I want to do is build a web site

Comments

I'm working on something that's sort of the opposite called Strapper[1]. The thing is, when I'm trying to launch a new product, I don't even want to build a website. It's a huge distraction. And I don't want to build on a CMS like Wordpress, because I'll just have to replace it with Rails when the project scope grows.

Different strokes for different folks though. What someone needs to build a blog or portfolio is going to be different from what you need to build a startup.

Why? Rails is not any more scalable than Wordpress.

I think the parent meant growth in scope, not in scale.
