The situation started to change; the “new wave” is coming, and ViewComponent, StimulusReflex, and Hotwire are riding the crest.
In this talk, I’d like to demonstrate how we can develop modern “frontend” applications in the New Rails Way.
Everything is cyclical, and web development is not an exception: ten years ago, we enjoyed developing Rails apps using HTML forms, a bit of AJAX, and jQuery—our productivity had no end! As interfaces gradually became more sophisticated, the “classic” approach began to give way to frontend frameworks, pushing Ruby into an API provider’s role.
