An Overview of Ruby on Rails 7.1 Features. Part III
I've never had problems with upgrades, in fact the latest version of Rails make upgrading a breeze. What Rails app version are you trying to upgrade? Happy to help. Rails also has an upgrade guide that's quite good: https://guides.rubyonrails.org/upgrading_ruby_on_rails.html
And you can use https://railsdiff.org/ to check what you're missing in upgrade apps. Anything other thing that break would most prolly come from another gem, which doesn't make it's Rails' fault or Ruby itself.

An Introduction to LiteStack for Ruby on Rails
Subsequently, we need a way to authenticate our users to associate prompts with them. Rather than using an incumbent like Devise, I chose to use a different approach. The authentication-zero gem can flexibly generate an authentication system, as opposed to including it as an engine. Conveniently, it comes with options such as:
- Generate a pre-built authentication system into a rails application
-
Everything was going great until I installed Devise!
If you don’t need a good amount of features that Devise brings to the table, I‘d skip it entirely. Look up has_secure_password, that will be enough for a vast amount of applications with authentication. Maybe combine with cancancan for authorization. Once you feel you have a grip on those, re-evaluate devise or take a look at https://github.com/lazaronixon/authentication-zero which will transparently integrate into your app instead of providing a Rube Goldberg machine (that’s what devise will feel like for beginners for a long time).

Authentication, Roles, and Authorization... oh my.
I keep going back and forth between Devise and something a little more friendly like authentication-zero gem for authentication.

Upgrading authentication-zero gem in project
For those that have used the authentication-zero gem or are familiar with its functionality, what is the best way to upgrade it in a project when new functionality is released?
- An authentication system generator for Rails applications.
- For Rails API-only authentication, do you go for a gem or 3D party service?

True. I tend to stay away from gems that try to integrate into multiple parts of your app to provide some sort of comprehensive solution. The kinds of gems I recommend are: 1) libraries (you call into them when you need them) 2) mounted apps on a url, isolated from the rest of your app 3) generators (this one seems nice, the author mentioned it in another HN thread: https://github.com/lazaronixon/authentication-zero).

Time to think about swapping off Devise?
I prefer to use authentication-zero, which generates code for me in the same application using has_secure_password, has good security practices, uses the same functions as Rails, and allows me to modify the flow to my liking.
