view_component VS bullet

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.

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

Rails has Bullet[0] to help identify and warn you against N+1

Does Django have anything active? Quick search revealed nplusone[1] but its been dead since 2018.

Without seeing more of the app, it's tough to say for certain, but one gem you might find helpful is the [bullet](https://github.com/flyerhzm/bullet) gem -- set this up in the app then start browsing around the app in development. If you have any N+1 queries or other minor optimizations that could be done it will inform you about them.

Getting rid of N+1 queries - This can help improve the speed of an app. The Bullet or Prosopite gems can give a lending hand here. The N+1 Dilemma — Bullet or Prosopite? entails a brief comparison of both.

There's a Ruby gem called Bullet that identifies and warns developers about N+1 problems. You can also have it fail tests if detected.

I don't know if the approach is possible with every ORM or if it's just leveraging some Ruby perks, but I can't think of a good reason why you wouldn't use the equivalent everywhere.

You might consider adding the bullet gem as a development requirement and see what it tells you, it's generally pretty good at spotting n-queries and letting you know how to fix them.

As a Rails developer, recently I found Bullet [0] which helps massively in dealing with eager loading. For some reason I expected the framework to manage this sort of thing for me, even when Rails actually does a ton out of the box already. Only while refactoring I picked up on queries dragging performance. Oh well...

This is good advice, it'll likely pick out some glaring issues right away. I would generally recommend looking at DB queries here too and recommend Bullet, but most software like DataDog, AppSignal etc will often also point N+1 and issues like it out.

In order to find all those N + 1 queries that are slowing down in your application, the community recommends using the Bullet gem.
