  4. Grape by Intridea https://github.com/ruby-grape/grape is a nifty choice. It is somewhat opinionated, but lightweight enough to have most of the features you'll need in writing an API Docs over at http://intridea.github.io/grape/
    comment by tmlee · 2015-10-27 · in Ask HN: Are there API centric frameworks that have the same traction as Rails?
  5. Let's not forget Grape either: https://github.com/intridea/grape You could see this move towards JSON APIs way back in 2012 as I suggested here: http://paulbjensen.co.uk/posts/2012/07/11/thoughts-on-rails-... . Some poo-pooed the notion,…

    comment by joshmn · 2014-05-30 · in Ask HN: API devs, what do you use for API documentation?
  9. One more ruby framework that might be interesting to test would be grape. https://github.com/intridea/grape Thanks for the work you've done with bench-micro. I was not aware of all of those frameworks.

    comment by jhess2991 · 2013-11-28 · in Go, or Ruby or ExpressJS for an API?

  14. …generate a Ruby gem for your REST API, as well as a documentation site. There's already grape ( https://github.com/intridea/grape ) and grape_doc, so it looks like 'grape_client' is the only missing piece. Imagine being able to…

  17. Rails is overkill for an api, I think grape https://github.com/intridea/grape has a lot of potential here. Put node.js in front of something like grape and you have the best of both worlds.
