  • SurveyJS - Open-Source JSON Form Builder to Create Dynamic Forms Right in Your App
  • WorkOS - The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS
  • InfluxDB - Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale
  • react-rails

    Integrate React.js with Rails views and controllers, the asset pipeline, or webpacker.

  • I think the simplest solution is using react-rails gem so that you can do everything from a single application. Using the gem, the build will be similar to normal rails app also you can utilize the react power as well.

  • inertia-laravel

    The Laravel adapter for Inertia.js.

  • Check out Inertia. It allows you to build your frontend with React or Vue, but all of the routing is handled by Rails. The components are rendered with props so you can use all the features of Rails, but React/Vue for rendering the HTML. Pretty awesome balance.

  • SurveyJS

    Open-Source JSON Form Builder to Create Dynamic Forms Right in Your App. With SurveyJS form UI libraries, you can build and style forms in a fully-integrated drag & drop form builder, render them in your JS app, and store form submission data in any backend, inc. PHP, ASP.NET Core, and Node.js.
