RubyJS-Vite

   1 23 145 8.3 Ruby

   Mayu is a live updating server-side component-based VDOM rendering framework written in Ruby (by mayu-live)

   

   I'm working on a framework inspired by React/Next.js which turns Haml into Ruby. It's 100% server side, but it runs pretty fast. I'm currently working on a rewrite, I just wish I had more time to work on it.

   Next generation frontend tooling. It's fast!

   

   Little confused as to why it has vite in it‘s name, it seems unrelated to https://vitejs.dev/

5. Opal

   Ruby ♥︎ JavaScript

   

   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?

6. importmap-rails

   5 30 1,125 7.1 Ruby

   Use ESM with importmap to manage modern JavaScript in Rails without transpiling or bundling.

   

   With importmaps (https://github.com/rails/importmap-rails) and Hotwire (https://hotwired.dev/), you write plain js and serve it.

   Also packages are served via CDN. There is no tree shaking. Rails got rid of the whole bundling step.

7. ruby.wasm

   6 1 0 9.7 Ruby

   ruby.wasm is a collection of WebAssembly ports of the CRuby. (by Largo)

   

   You can use the Javascript API and the syntax is a joy. I used it to make an electron app with videoplayer.

11. rux

    9 9 404 5.8 Ruby

    A jsx-inspired way to render view components in Ruby.

    

    Thanks!

    Both! I needed something like JSX, and I found Rux [1] but I had some issues with it, and then I found syntax_tree-haml [2] which gave me an AST that I could transform into Ruby. This is what the transformation looks like: https://gist.github.com/aalin/c0e4b0360a1f84d0283149fe4b2ce6...

    I have always liked Haml because it's compact and easy to read.
