The post features a Q&A with Pat Allan, maintainer of the Readings bookshop website built on Hanakai, who discusses migrating from an early Hanami-adjacent codebase to modern Hanakai, using multiple slices with PostgreSQL, Redis, and Elasticsearch, and preferring Hanami's separation of repositories and data objects over ActiveRecord's tightly coupled models. The post also thanks returning sponsor Brandon Weaver for his support and advice. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
