Rails is definitely older than Django. Django wasn’t released publicly until 2005.

Django had private use before then, but rails was also in private use before it was released.

Rails's public release was July 2004: https://rubytalk.org/t/ann-rails-0-5-0-the-end-of-vaporware/...

Django's was July 2005: https://www.djangoproject.com/weblog/2005/jul/15/chipy/

Thanks for the correction!
