This also means that it’s very simple to add your own customizations. - A variety of helpers is already available, giving you things like advanced caching, OpenID-authentication or aspect-oriented programming for your controllers. - It is possible to use the ORM you like, be it Sequel, DataMapper, ActiveRecord, Og, Kansas or something more simplistic like DBI, or a wrapper around YAML::Store. - Good documentation: although we don’t have 100% documentation right now (dcov says around 75%), just about every part of Ramaze is covered with basic and advanced docs. There are a variety of examples, screencasts and a tutorial available. - Friendly community: there are people from all over the world using Ramaze, so you can get almost instant help and info.
