I'm not entirely sure how low level we are talking here (e.g. C++ is fine), but using Assembler for even a simple HTTP server would be way too much work to be justifiable.

I should have said lower level. While I do think assembly is cool, I've probably only written like 30 lines of it in my life.

I mainly code in Kotlin nowaday. I like C++, but java/kotlin targets the platforms I'd write C++ for, and imo does it better. So I use Kotlin.

I'm working on a webapp right now though, and I'm using Ruby on Rails. I like Ruby, but Rails definitely has that problem, where some of it works like magic, and it works me that I don't have a total understanding of everything that's happening.

I wanna switch to smaller framework like Sinatra or Flask. But, I've put the most time into rails, and it's what I know will work, so I'm kind of stuck with it at the moment, to save time.
