view_component VS Open-Source-Ruby-and-Rails-Apps

When searching for examples of table components built with the ViewComponent gem, I was surprised to find none. After some inquiries, I came across examples that worked like this:

View components offer two primary ways to interact with the component: passing arguments to the initializer and using slots:

For example, splitting out views into partials? Or the new ViewComponent feature that's becoming quite popular - https://viewcomponent.org/

I used to do "pure ruby" approach to that -- but basically wound up realizing I was re-inventing github's view_component. Their design goals were similar enough to what I was trying to do, that it made more sense just to use that, rather than try to re-invent it myself.

ViewComponent

The linked one is my Rails implementation, written for ViewComponent. The official version uses Nunjucks.

I'd suggest picking an open source repo and giving yourself a very simple task, like changing some text on a specific page, doubling up every row in some data-driven table, something like that. It doesn't have to be sensible, it just has to be something that forces you to learn

If you love doing hands-on project, I recommend you to look at the existing awesome Rails app. You will learn a lot, and learn what matters.

I already make a tons of awesome Ruby on Rails list here;

I also found this kind of list here on GitHub.
