  • Ruby on Rails: View Components and Storybook and Tailwind, Match Made in Heaven?
    3 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 29 Aug 2021
    I've used view component heavily over the last year or so, it's an amazing library. It perfectly fits the gap between helpers and partials and really does help keep things well organised.

    I maintain a library of components and being able to spin up a new project and hit the ground running makes for a great experience.

    I'm looking at documenting with lookbook instead of storybook, but both look decent.
