A comment on Building GitHub with Ruby on Rails. Parent comment

Even with my kindest interpretation, I cannot find how this comment adds anything to the conversation. It’s also incorrect. Hotwire was released after GitHub’s internal UI framework (which is quite impressive!) was created.

Attributing some UI bugs with their choice of framework is a massive oversimplification of the problem.

Any source for this?

My understanding is that it was extracted for building Hey from the use cases the 37signals people had on other products such as basecamp, etc.

Yes that’s correct.

I was saying it came after, meaning GitHub could not have used it since it didn’t exist. :)
