alt Hacker NewsRuby and Rails are even better candidates. CSP, Background workers, and many other features that Django still lacks have been standard offerings for sometimes 10+ years!

CSP is literally in this release, and background workers are intentionally not part of Django because you usually want to offload tasks to other nodes so your CPU can keep serving HTTP requests.
Edit: Background tasks for light work are also included in this release.

merb was going to do that with slices, and it seemed really promising at the time (cerca 2008), however it merged with Rails. I wish both merb and io.js had stayed independent. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=408011 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=8884128
Rails tries to more tightly integrate with the front-end which causes a lot of turn over the years. Django projects from 10 years ago are still upgradable in a day or two. Rails does include some nice stuff though, but I much prefer Django's code first database models than Rail's ActiveRecord.
