the path forward is clear, and it’s no build/importmap based. i just overhauled a 15 year old rails project from rails 4 to 7, and ruby 2 to 3. ripping out webpack reduced deploy time by 90%

the complexity of the app is greatly reduced as a result.

And what do you use for CSS?

You don’t need to “use” anything, browsers have very good CSS support these days.

Sure, but you don't want to import CSS Franeworks as precomiled files, don't you? You would like to use them in their packaging system. This seems to be more js-centric today, still lots of SASS.

the project had some sass i didn’t want to port back to css. i’m using dartsass to compile it to css which is a recommendation in the rails guide.
