CLI tools at Aha!
Ruby has always been a great general-purpose scripting language and is often used to create command-line utilities. Many of these use the excellent Thor gem to parse command-line options, but there's no escaping one fact: command-line utilities just aren't interesting. Never have been, never will be.

Seeking recommendations or suggestions for learning Ruby to maintain the home directory?
I will add that if you want to develop a CLI tool that gives you various commands that you can run, I would have a look at something like thor to keep it organised and documented. But this is completely unnecessary as a first step - you can simply create a Ruby file that does a thing you want and invoke it directly.

Bootstrapping with Ruby on Rails Generators and Templates
Not to be confused with generator functions (which you might be familiar with from Python or Javascript), Rails generators are custom Thor commands that focus on, well, generating things.

Building a Dot Matrix Animator
I wanted to provide a command-line interface for the user that was easy to use, and I also wanted to provide the flexibility with the options used to render the animation. After looking around online I found that Thor was a good tool to utilize. It allowed me to easily create a number of options that make this program much more versatile. An example below shows how a user can select which folder the source images are in, as well as what the background and foreground colors should be:

Move over Rake, Thor is the new King
I've used Thor a lot, but it's kind of terrible. It uses a custom non-POSIX-compliant option parser (ex: method_option :list, type: :array -> --list one two three, where as the POSIX way is --list one,two,three or --item one -- item two --item three) and will not error on unknown options or exit with -1 when not enough args are given. If you want a better CLI library, checkout dry-rb, command_kit, or cmdparse.

Learn Stimulus in Ruby on Rails by Building a Toggle)
Hey HN!
For those new to Rails, Stimulus (https://stimulus.hotwired.dev/) is a way to sprinkle frontend javascript code into your Rails views.
I held off using Stimulus in my Rails apps for a long time because I didn't understand it — the data= attributes looked weird, and the connection between my Rails views and Stimulus javascript controllers was confusing.
So I decided to write the guide I wish I had when I was learning Stimulus.
Hope you enjoy it! I'm happy to answer any questions, feel free to ask any.
Thanks, Harrison
