Overview Of Rails 7.1 Features Part 1

• Ruby on Rails

  467 54,894 10.0 Ruby

  Ruby on Rails

  

I was pretty sad to see the pattern matching PR reverted for 7.1 [0], but I guess the Rails team wants to make sure they nail the execution. For now, I'm good with the gem that kddnewton put together (https://github.com/kddnewton/rails-pattern_matching).

• rails-pattern_matching

• docked

  10 1,271 4.1 Dockerfile

  Running Rails from Docker for easy start to development

  

I have a feeling the big picture theme for 7.1 will be Docker. See https://github.com/rails/rails/pull/46762 for production, and https://github.com/rails/docked for development.

• Prisma

  442 37,151 9.9 TypeScript

  Next-generation ORM for Node.js & TypeScript | PostgreSQL, MySQL, MariaDB, SQL Server, SQLite, MongoDB and CockroachDB

  

I recently tried Nextjs and Remix to explore other stacks since I've been using Elixir and Phoenix since 2016.

You won't find the dev UX you take for granted in Elixir and Phoenix.

Endless routing options, background jobs? Just install Squirrel and yadabadabadoo or just use AWS SQS(https://old.reddit.com/r/nextjs/comments/qspw4v/how_to_do_ba...). What about solid backend processes? Can I call those in some kind of repl? In Elixir I can just go `iex -S mix phx.server` and `MyModule.foobar("test")` and bada bing I'm all set. What about logging? Wait I need to decide and configure a logger? I also need to decide and configure what to output to? What about a nice ORM? Prisma looks good, set that whole thing up from scratch, I need to await, but special considerations need to be thought of when iterating through a collection? Promise.all vs for..of? I iterated an array and want to save it to the DB but it's running out of connections (https://github.com/prisma/prisma/discussions/16884)? Why do I even need to think about this?

• typerb

  2 86 10.0 Ruby

  Strong type checking (assertion) for Ruby

• flyctl

  544 1,302 9.9 Go

  Command line tools for fly.io services

  

I’m stoked about this. It will make it even easier to support deployments to https://fly.io/ and other Docker platforms.

• fresh

  124 11,849 9.7 TypeScript

  The next-gen web framework.
