CoilSnake VS hotwire-rails

https://github.com/pk-hack/CoilSnake/wiki is a livesaver for me when rom hacking.

Look into using CoilSnake. It’s a really powerful ROM hacking tool for EarthBound. https://pk-hack.github.io/CoilSnake/

Haven’t tried it myself, but CoilSnake would be the best way to do this I believe

Basically title. I downloaded version 4.1 from github but when I ran the .exe through virustotal some of the virus scanners picked it up as a trojan. Is there some other place I should download it from? I haven't ran the program yet because that kind of spooked me lol. Or is there some other program entirely I should use?

Some recent projects:

- Frontend only, plain javascript, but a lot of it uses a project-specific custom scripting language. This is a game that consists almost entirely of procedurally generated written content, so I write a language that makes it easy to categorize procedural content bits and make sub-calls to new ones. I have a long way to go on language design still, but it's already better than a json blob.

- HTML frontend with some small plain javascript. Backend is node/express, but most of the heavy lifting is done by a shell call to Coil Snake[1], and which inserts a ton of code in ccscript and 65816 assembly. This is a randomizer for Earthbound (http://pkscramble.com/), so those are super specialized tools for that purpose. But I really like the Coil Snake ecosystem, and it's definitely going to influence my projects going forward (the decision to use a custom scripting language above was influenced by ccscript).

- Plain javascript frontend, vertx backend, postgres database. This is my goto for serious projects. It's fairly boring.

This is the best site for getting my into EB rom hacking imo https://github.com/pk-hack/CoilSnake/wiki/Introduction

are you downloading from here https://pk-hack.github.io/CoilSnake/

In general there's this: https://github.com/pk-hack/CoilSnake/wiki But for movement scripts themselves, I don't think so. You'd have to join the PK hack Discord server and ask for help there. I'd help you myself but I haven't done them in a while so I'd need to mess with them again.

Applications generated with Rails 7 will get Turbo and Stimulus (from Hotwire) by default, instead of Turbolinks and UJS. Hotwire is a new approach that delivers fast updates to the DOM by sending HTML over the wire.

For Ajax-y stuff, I am really excited by the new crop of "HTML-as-a-Service" or "HTML-over-the-wire."

https://hotwired.dev/

For all the turbo/stimulus/hotwire mix, you want to add a new feature just for the sake of adding it? or do you have a use case that fits the feature? if you have then you probably already have an implementation with a different technology (stimulus reflex? some custom websockets or ajax implementation? something with anycable?) and you have to check how to migrate from that technology to hotwire. If you just want to use the feature with no real need for it to practice then just pick any tutorial from the internet (like the intro in the official website https://hotwired.dev).

I was recently interested in similar topic. Here are 3 similar solutions I found:

* https://htmx.org/

* https://unpoly.com/

* https://hotwired.dev/

My personal preference is Unpoly (the idea of "layers" is awesome). But the best explanation of concept as a whole (HATEOAS, keeping app state on server using partial page updates, etc) is at HTMX homepage, and in these essays:

At the end of 2020 the Basecamp team released a collection of Javascript libraries called Hotwire. Modern web stacks have popularized javascript-rendered front ends and JSON transmissions. Hotwire's primary motivation is to reduce the Javascript footprint and allow application front ends to be created in primarily HTML. It pairs very nicely with the Ruby on Rails ideology and is often demonstrated in that context. I aim to write a series on how Hotwire can be used in any application to simplify development and reduce the need for heavy Javascript downloads. Hotwire currently consists of two javascript libraries: Turbo and Stimulus. The first part of this series introduces Turbo.

I've been doing that a while until I just got sock of the JS spagetti and often duplicated code and went full on Angular CSR and never looked back. That being said, I've been seeing a lot recently about Laravel's Livewire and Symfony and Ruby on Rail's integration with Hotwire (stimulus+turbo).
