YASL
Yet Another Serialization Library - A pure Ruby auto-serialization library that works across different Ruby implementations like Opal and JRuby as an automatic alternative to YAML/Marshal. Unlike Marshal, it does not raise errors for unserializable objects, thus provides a highly productive friction-free auto-serialization experience. (by AndyObtiva)

WorkOS
The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
It's been a long time dream for me since about 2013 when I started getting deep into Ruby and Rails, to be able to write Ruby code for the frontend instead of JavaScript. I was a lover and adopter of CoffeeScript (which had it's flaws and imperfections), but that mostly got killed by ES6. I wrote some PoCs with Opal[1] that felt pretty good to write, but the overhead was rough (this was many years ago so things might be different now) and I never really felt like I didn't have to know about or care about the underlying javascript. I tend to discard leaky abstractions as I feel they often add more complexity than they were meant to cover in the first place.
Has anybody used this or Opal or anything else? What is the state of "write your frontend in Ruby" nowadays?
