Padrino is a full-stack Ruby web framework built on top of Sinatra, adding generators, routing, an admin interface, mailer, caching, and authentication. It is ORM- and template-agnostic and supports mounting multiple applications within a single project.

Use cases

• build a full-stack web application in Ruby on top of Sinatra
• generate an admin dashboard for existing models
• mount multiple small Sinatra apps in one project
• create a lightweight JSON web service with generators and routing
• add authentication and authorization to a Sinatra-based app
• scaffold a project with a chosen ORM like ActiveRecord or Sequel

When to choose

• you like Sinatra's simplicity but need a full-stack framework with admin, mailer, and generators
• you want ORM-agnostic and template-agnostic flexibility in Ruby
• you need to mount several modular apps in one codebase

When to avoid

• you need a large ecosystem, frequent releases, and long-term support like Rails provides
• you want a minimal micro-framework without full-stack conventions
• your team relies on cutting-edge Ruby web tooling or async runtimes
