Am I the only one who was very, very surprised when the screencast immediately jumped into Rails? There's no mention of Rails anywhere on the landing page.

Ya same here. I've been doing web dev for 13 years and was genuinely looking forward to this magical HTML only solution of theirs but left feeling deceived after finding out it's rails.

It's not rails. It's very specifically backend agnostic.

Source: I've been using turbolinks and stimulus with Django for a good year and a half.
