I think it's mostly because leaving your user accounts in the hands of a third-party adds a lot of complexity and they'd rather have full control in-app.

Those options can be good options if you need enterprise integrations or you're building static apps though where you don't have a backend that can do it.

Hey Charles,

Time.zone comes from ActiveSupport, so you'll need to either do this in the Rails console or require "active_support/all" in your IRB session.

This never became the default in Ruby 3 unfortunately. See: https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/11473#note-53

I don't use it, but I probably should although I'm sure I modify strings like this more often than I realize. It's a pretty great performance improvement when you can use it!

Check the readme, we have instructions for that. 👍

You create a password in the credentials (make one up) and then use that password in Sendgrid's webhook URL. That way Rails can verify the POST request came from Sendgrid (and not someone trying to abuse your app).

Try using ngrok to expose your localhost to the internet. That will give you a public domain and SSL.

You're welcome and thanks for all the support! 🙏❤️

I think we didn't have the issue with Jumpstart Pro because I have some examples in the docs or something, so ours didn't get purged.

There's some discussion about this on the GitHub repo: https://github.com/tailwindlabs/tailwindcss-forms/issues/12

Use a before_action in ApplicationController to check if the user is signed in and has an incomplete profile. Then redirect them to the page for doing that. 👍

Hey Tim!

This actually might change very soon whenever the "New Magic" DHH keeps talking about gets released.

There are a few good options currently that I like using:

1. Write a Stimulus JS controller that makes that AJAX request and replaces the partial in the DOM. Rails just needs to render the partial and return that without the layout.

2. For realtime, you can use CableReady to broadcast the partial from the backend to the frontend with ActionCable. The partial would just need an ID so that it can be searched for and replaced.

Hey Amanda!

That is a fun challenge to solve. I wouldn't add that many columns to the table as that would get real tricky to manage. I like the idea of doing a new table, that could work well.

The two options I would consider:

1. Use a json column and the store_accessor functionality in Rails to store these values in a json field.
2. Separate table with name and value:integer

Both of these options would let you freely add/remove values as needed. And you can leave the values as nil by default so they don't take up any space if they're not being used.

There aren't too many pros/cons to these. The separate table would just require a join but you can query against json columns in postgres and mysql too so they're similarly equal. I guess if you needed to add any Ruby logic to a value, the separate model would be helpful in that case.

Hey Houssein,

You should contact support in Hatchbox, not on the GoRails forums. 👍

I do use @apply in a few places like buttons, but that's about it. We talked to Adam Wathan on Remote Ruby Episode #97 about this recently and he advised on not using @apply which was interesting. Definitely give that a listen.

For the most part, I've copied a lot of components from TailwindUI and tweaked them without extracting out my own classes. He recommends using partials or something like ViewComponent instead of @apply.

@Mylan, you can use TailwindCSS 2.0 with Wepbacker! You just need to use the master branch for the gem and node module for the time being. I fixed a bug in Webpacker to make it work the day that TailwindCSS 2.0 came out so I could update Jumpstart Pro for it. 👍

Kieran and I worked on it that night and wrote up our steps: https://www.kieranklaassen.com/upgrade-rails-to-tailwind-css-2/

It'll renew at the same price. 👍

I've switched to using https://github.com/acmesh-official/acme.sh for SSL on Ubuntu 20.04 and it works great.

Definitely recommend it. It's what we use in Hatchbox.io for SSL.

If you set the debug: true option it will print out the request and response:

Dan, you're correct. If you trigger a reflex, it's just like refreshing the page. That's why I typically wouldn't use Reflex for situations like that where you need to be more efficient. That said, fragment caching can help considerably there. You just have to be careful with what you're doing.

That said, I think Stimulus Reflex killer for just getting something working quick and dirty as a prototype.

Hahaha! That is awesome. I loved Digg. I used to watch Diggnation sooo much.

You can copy their mailer and views from the gem into your app and then make any tweaks you need. 👍

JP, I'm storing it as an integer, total number of seconds. Then I convert it to whatever display format I want and that gives me the flexibility to change it and/or calculate the total duration of a series too.
