Yeah, it is really hard to find something that can spin up a web app faster. Django is close, but rails is really good at it.

Yes, and there's plenty of hiring around it: https://www.rails.jobs. (disclaimer: I'm behind this)

Companies are regularly complaining it's getting harder to find senior+ Rails developers, which I think is a good problem to have.

The only one that I could see competing is Django, but IMO it isn't as fast as rails.
