    You could try a CMS engine, ala comfortable-mexican-sofa - though I don't think it's been updated for a couple of years.
  • Best Rails CMS choice 2021
    3 projects | /r/rails | 22 Jul 2021
    I have had great luck on many sites with Comfy CMS. It integrates well with the rest of the apps I build, the WYSIWYG editor isn't bad, and it does a good job with assets.

    You're going to be disappointed. https://www.locomotivecms.com/ might get you kind of close. https://github.com/comfy/comfortable-mexican-sofa is good, too, but not modern-looking.
  • Why being a developer is frustrating — and why we do it anyway

    I did my research, and I really liked comfortable mexican sofa or Comfy. It even had ActiveStorage integration for file uploads! Nothing against other CMS engines, be it RefineryCMS or AlchemyCMS - but I felt that Comfy had the right combination of being extremely simple, yet having enough hidden powers to not become a blocker in the future.

    I started using cells years ago This view_component gem will take some time to be better than that.
  • From partials to ViewComponents: writing reusable front-end code in Rails
    11 projects | dev.to | 3 Jun 2022
    So what about the world outside Rails defaults? There are quite a few independent projects trying to help build components in the Rails view layer, among the more famous being Draper (utilizing the decorators pattern) or Cells (full-featured components in views). In the end, we decided to take a deeper look into a relatively new one – the ViewComponent framework.
  • Cells - Introduction

    GitHub has recently posted an article about view_component: https://github.blog/2020-12-15-encapsulating-ruby-on-rails-views/ Before it gets too popular I think I should share my experience with cells So that developers can have another chance to re-think and pick what to use for "encapsulated view components".

    This, combined with the fact that we are using cells gem for some view components, resulted in another couple of hours of hunting for the problem (it takes some time to debug what exactly and how exactly changed in Rails internals) and then fixing this problem. At this moment, I already spent over 8 hours debugging Rails internals, different gem internals, fixing application, fixing tests, screaming internally.
