10 years of Sinatra

on YouTube ↗36m

" summary

Ten years of Sinatra traces its origin from Camping and Rack to a tiny DSL that runs on Rack, shows a working bare‑metal example that uses Mustermann and WEBrick, and reports concrete adoption: GitHub, Stripe, Fastly and SoundCloud still rely on Sinatra in production and Stripe’s API layers on top of it. The talk implements a minimal router/response stack, demos curl requests with params, and confirms the prototype actually serves 200 responses.
