view_component VS Annotate

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.

gem "annotate" - https://github.com/ctran/annotate_models | Adds DB-schema comments to models. May be unnecessary on RubyMine, YMMW.

I believe Ctran is aware of this based on his response in this issue https://github.com/ctran/annotate_models/issues/913

A gem that's pretty useful alongside this one is the annotation gem -- it prefixes models with their specific schema dump (as comments) and then updates those descriptive comments on migration. It's one of my go-to gems to install when I rotate onto a new-to-me Rails project (or start a new one) and I'm working to understand the data model.

Have you looked at annotate for inspiration?

I get it, though. Sounds like you're used to seeing every column definition in there. And that would be handy. There is a gem that you might like: https://github.com/ctran/annotate_models

annotate for annotations
