Brut: A Simple Yet Powerful Ruby Web Framework
2025-07-09
Brut is a simple yet fully-featured web framework for Ruby, eschewing controllers, verbs, and resources in favor of pages, forms, and single-action handlers. Developers write HTML directly, generated server-side, with full freedom to use JavaScript and CSS. Brut boasts built-in OpenTelemetry instrumentation, a Sequel-powered data access layer, and OptionParser-based command-line tools, and is easily deployable with Docker. It streamlines the development process, letting developers focus on business logic and enjoy building web apps.
