Bye Bye to_json! Hello RABL!
RABL is awesome. We've been building a json API for use with iOS apps*, and the Rails to_json method has time and time again proven to be a bit of a PITA... not to mention messy as hell. Enter the fine folks at Miso. The combination of RABL to create json templates with the far faster yajl-ruby parser have solved a lot of our issues. Still a couple little bugs with Rails 3.1 that need ironing out. In fact, an issue with recognizing partials looks like it will be committed soon. Which will allow me to DRY up a lot of what I'm doing. I'll be a very happy camper.
