AppFuse removes the pain of integrating open source projects. It also makes testing a first-class citizen, allows you to generate your entire UI from database tables, and supports Web services with XFire. Furthermore, AppFuse's community is healthy and happy -- and one of the few places where users of different Web frameworks actually get along.

I've always said, Rails really is mostly code generation for scaffolding. If you're going to just generate code anyway, what does it matter what code you're generating?

Ruby is a fantastic language, but I'm not impressed with Rails one bit. That said, I'm not an AppFuse user either.

I'm just wondering, how would the rest of you compare Rails to AppFuse?

At the end of the day I'd probably pick AppFuse 'cause Raible has way better fashion sense than DHH. ;-)

This article definitely makes some compelling statements. The security layer sounds great, as does the easy CRUD (which more and more frameworks are doing these days).

AppFuse, WebWork...everyone is trying to package myriad Java frameworks sprouting out every single day. They are better than having to manage all by ourselves.
