Re:Rails 8: It's more fun to be competent [video] by melody_calling on Friday September 27, 2024 @02:27PM (#41673997)
Love love love this. I recently saw something about Rails 8 (probably Kamal?) and decided to build a toy app using the main git branch parsing and displaying Telegram logs. I haven’t used Rails or done any front-end work since the traumatic 2->3 upgrade over a decade ago.

My two main takeaways were:

1) This is fun

2) Why do we put up with all this garbage in modern development

2a) Okay I guess Tailwind is more useful that I assumed

And it’s legitimately made me think I could build and launch something on my own, which I’ve never had the confidence to try before.

The Tailwind reference was so quick, what made you think it was useful? I mean I think I like Tailwind, just asking because I’m curious.
