We're using this gem to hide and show the Black Friday sale banners on GoRails. 🎉

To do that, you'd need to have a way to dynamically add the engine folders to the tailwind.config.js in the parent app. That runs Node, but you could probably have it run a Rails command to get a list of folders that you parse an add to the content: [] dynamically.
The main reason for keeping separate, precompiled CSS for engines is that they don't require the parent app to run Tailwind or any other framework that way.
Adding these exports will use Homebrew's Ruby and you don't want to use Homebrew's Ruby. You want to use Mise as we show in the guide.
After you follow the instructions in the guide, you may need to restart your terminal for it to detect the Rails command.
What is the error?
You probably have to build it yourself, but the Rails devcontainer repo will let you specify the Ruby version with an env var: https://github.com/rails/devcontainer/blob/main/images/ruby/.devcontainer/devcontainer.json#L19

Posted in Stripe Connect setup with Pay gem
Marketplaces can be pretty confusing. I think this sounds right, but I can't remember if the users receiving payments will need to be a Merchant or not.
https://docs.stripe.com/connect/design-an-integration
Stripe now uses Payouts instead of Transfers, so we might need to update Pay a bit to help with that functionality. They're constantly changing things so it can be hard to keep up!
Everyone wants multitenancy to work differently, so what are you specifically trying to do? Separate logins by subdomain or something?
Those are on my list!
I really love how flexible and easy to customize the new Rails 8 authentication generator is. Think we should cover 2 Factor Auth next?
What do you think about having a built-in linter that comes with Rails?
Raise your hand if you're guilty of making this mistake in the past. 👋😬
That's probably a bug in the UserAgent bot check I would imagine.
If you're building a no build Rails application that makes use of modern browser features (like ONCE Campfire!), you'll definitely want to use this.
Amazing, thanks for sharing!
That would be great to know. Had the same question about OrbStack. 🧐
You can install vim / neovim / etc inside the container. Here's a blog post about it: https://cadu.dev/running-neovim-on-devcontainers/
That's exactly what it's for. 👍
Posted in Rails app to upload and view videos?
Depends on what you need. I assume you want users to be able to upload videos through your application? What other features do you need?
If you don't mind the videos being publicly available, YouTube can work and it's probably your only free option.
We use Bunny.net for video hosting and it's very cheap compared to alternatives like Wistia, Mux, and AWS.
You could also use Rails' built-in ActiveStorage, but with video it helps to use a service that transcodes videos into playlists that can stream at different bitrates.
Bunny has some JavaScript you can use to upload videos from your application that you can read up on. You'll need to generate the signature server-side to keep your API key secret when generating the presigned uploads. This is basically the same way direct uploads work with ActiveStorage to send files directly from the browser to the hosting service instead of uploading to Rails, then uploading again to the hosting service.
Pretty excited about this because it makes Rails development so much easier to start for beginners or for teams using various operating systems.
I also forgot to mention, there is a devcontainer CLI that you can use outside of VS Code, so you could use Vim or other editors inside the devcontainer. https://github.com/devcontainers/cli
What do you think? Will you use Dev Containers?
