  • How to Migrate a Rails 6 App From sass-rails to cssbundling-rails
    10 projects | dev.to | 20 Oct 2021
    dart-sass has no knowledge of sprockets, so before we finalize the build we need sprockets to run through each file quickly and add these assets paths in. While official support for this is pending, we arrived at a workaround that seems to do the trick:

What are some alternatives?

When comparing Spring and sprockets-rails you can also consider the following projects:

Parallel Tests - Ruby: 2 CPUs = 2x Testing Speed for RSpec, Test::Unit and Cucumber

importmap-rails - Use ESM with importmap to manage modern JavaScript in Rails without transpiling or bundling.

mutant - Automated code reviews via mutation testing - semantic code coverage.

cssbundling-rails - Bundle and process CSS in Rails with Tailwind, PostCSS, and Sass via Node.js.

vcr - Record your test suite's HTTP interactions and replay them during future test runs for fast, deterministic, accurate tests.

Stimulus - A modest JavaScript framework for the HTML you already have

Knapsack - Knapsack splits tests evenly across parallel CI nodes to run fast CI build and save you time.

PostCSS - Transforming styles with JS plugins

Wrong - Wrong provides a general assert method that takes a predicate block. Assertion failure messages are rich in detail.

tailwindcss-rails

timecop - A gem providing "time travel", "time freezing", and "time acceleration" capabilities, making it simple to test time-dependent code. It provides a unified method to mock Time.now, Date.today, and DateTime.now in a single call.

sassc-ruby - Use libsass with Ruby!
