Been using Rails since 1.2. Still excited. Rails 7 + Hotwire + ESBuild = <3

Once I add bootstrap and simple_form, the amount of code I don't have to write in a Rails application is just incredible.

And yes, I've used other things on and off my entire career. React is a love/hate relationship. Happy to punt it when working on a small project.

I've been trying out Alpine instead of Vue/React/whatevs and I'm liking it.

Also, I'm using Propshaft instead of Hotwire

   rails new --skip-hotwire -a propshaft

Isn't propshaft and hotwire two separate things?

I've been trying out Alpine† instead of Vue/React/whatevs and I'm liking it.

Also, I'm using Propshaft couple with Importmap instead of Hotwire & Turborails and so on

   mkdir foo
   cd foo
   bundle init
   # edit Gemfile to set the Rails you want: main, edge, etc.
   bundle
   # plus whatever other options you normally choose when you run `new'
   bundle exec rails new --skip-hotwire -a propshaft .
   bundle install
   bundle binstubs bundler
   bin/bundle add importmap-rails
   bin/rails importmap:install
   bin/importmap pin @rails/ujs alpinejs bootstrap
What's simple_form btw, am I missing out on something wonderful?
