His compagny seems to like re-inventing the wheel with vastly inferior solutions though.

I don't know about Rails but Kamal 2 is pretty great.

It's their own E2E solution for deploying and running Docker apps in production. Solves SSL, proxy, zero downtime deploys, etc.

Example?

  • Kamal, Thruster, removing TypeScript from Rails without notice, moving into Webpack and back out again without a reasonable upgrade path, pushing Hotwire over real frontends.

    • Does „removing TypeScript from Rails without notice“ refer to the conversion of Turbo from TS to JS from a year ago?

      They changed the implementation of an optional library. The interface of the library didn‘t change at all. Only how it was implemented.
