turbo-rails VS Stimulus

The install notes here link to an issue specific to webpacker. Try that and see if it works?

True, in theory it is. A lot of it is coded in libraries like turbo-rails, though. And these are Rails-specific. But I've seen it being used in some Laravel projects, also I used it with Hanami.

Check out https://github.com/hotwired/turbo-rails/blob/main/app/models/turbo/streams/tag_builder.rb

So apart from the pretty obvious question of "why on earth would you want to do this?", I think there's a misunderstanding here of the intended use case of turbo streams. You have a page, and then some state changes on the server and you want to update the page to reflect that. Incrementing a variable doesn't really qualify as a state change, but perhaps a Product changing from "not good" to "good" would be an event worth broadcasting, which you could do using the Broadcastable concern in turbo-rails.

Use this too: https://github.com/hotwired/turbo-rails

Not mentioned in the article, but it's nice that turbo-rails recently gained the ability to pass ViewComponent objects directly to turbo stream helpers. https://github.com/hotwired/turbo-rails/pull/433

Release notes: https://github.com/hotwired/turbo-rails/releases/tag/v1.4.0

turbo/streams_channel.rb - a way to link a turbo stream with an ActionCable channel.

The readme seems to give a pretty good overview of turbo: https://github.com/hotwired/turbo-rails

I also recommend checking out the docs for Stimulus and Turbo to familiarise yourself with all their features and the APIs used in this series.

Any tips on preparing to work with Wiz as an incoming intern. I heard its identical to Stimulus: https://stimulus.hotwired.dev/

use Stimulus

With Stimulus, you've got a powerful tool to take your app's interactivity up a notch. For even more awesome features and Stimulus wizardry, check out the Stimulus Documentation.

The next version of Stimulus makes it easier to access parts of the private API thanks to my pull request.

I like Stimulus, it was a bit pushed by Symfony with their ux thing.

I thought it'd be https://stimulus.hotwired.dev/ for a minute but I think that ecosystem is tied too closely with rails.

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

Hey /r/rails, these past few weeks, I've been working on a beginner's guide to Stimulus and I'm excited to finally share it!
