I like using Tailwind UI so I can mix and match components / layouts to create what I need since I have to customize themes anyways.

Thanks, removed the link. 👍

Also just pushed up a branch for devcontainers which you can use in VSCode or GitHub Codespaces (which is similar to cloud9) https://github.com/features/codespaces

You'd need to install Ruby, Postgres, and Redis on Cloud9. We did a screencast on Cloud9 here: https://gorails.com/episodes/aws-cloud9-ruby-on-rails-development

Nope, partials start with an underscore. The js.erb extension is the format + the renderer. So this example is a response for the js format and rendered using erb.

You can have a controller respond to the JS format.

respond_to do |format|
  format.js
end

And then render a action.js.erb file

You could also use delete_prefix so you can leave the .ruby-version file as-is. 👍

ruby File.read(".ruby-version").delete_prefix("ruby-").strip

I believe you need to compile imagemagick with heic support. It doesn't always come out of the box (sometimes because of licensing issues).

Only the free videos are on YouTube. I don't know that we will move them, but you could use a VPN to access them from another country.

Yep, you would want to treat them as a view specs because that's what they are. view_context is an instance of ActionView::Base. 👍

Solidus is an open source Ruby on Rails e-commerce platform you can use: https://guides.solidus.io/

Hey Michael!

Jumpstart Pro doesn't require a subscription. The subscription gets you access to updates (like the upcoming Rails 7.1 and Ruby 3.3 upgrades), but you can cancel anytime and keep working on your app.

You can also use our Pay gem if you want to build your own template and add payments completely free.

Alternatives like BT are kind of shady unfortunately and hide their pricing which is $349/year for Stripe integration. That's $100 more than our Jumpstart Pro Rails SaaS template.

These are my favorite kinds of things to learn and teach. Learning behind the scenes really helps you become a better developer. 💪

That's a great tip!

VS Code also has an extension you can use https://github.com/ruby/vscode-rdbg

The other option is to replace foreman with overmind which allows you to do the same thing by opening another terminal and running overmind connect web to connect to the process. This will work with binding.irb, pry & debug or anything else.

Here's my bin/dev

#!/usr/bin/env sh

PORT="${PORT:-3000}"
export PORT

if command -v overmind > /dev/null 2>&1; then
  exec overmind start -f Procfile.dev "$@"
else
  exec foreman start -f Procfile.dev "$@"
fi

Glad you found it helpful!

The refactoring part is half the fun. 😄

Thanks Kylo Ren!

Yeah, thankfully webpacker is no longer the way to go. Unfortunately Rails didn't pick just one option to replace it, they left it open ended.

Personally, I use esbuild with https://github.com/rails/jsbundling-rails.

Interesting. I don't think I've seen this documented anywhere. It seems like it would filter out the only: and other options and the leftover ones are set as defaults?

I know you can do this:

resources :todos do
  scope defaults: { record_type: "Todo" } do
    concerns :likeable
  end
end

Just recorded a Routing Concerns in Rails screencast using routing concerns to refactor this further.
