Our great sponsors
  • Amplication - open-source Node.js backend code generator
  • Appwrite - The open-source backend cloud platform
  • SurveyJS - A Non-Cloud Alternative to Google Forms that has it all.
  • Sonar - Write Clean JavaScript Code. Always.
  • InfluxDB - Collect and Analyze Billions of Data Points in Real Time
  • Mergify - Updating dependencies is time-consuming.
  • react-on-rails

    Integration of React + Webpack + Rails + rails/webpacker including server-side rendering of React, enabling a better developer experience and faster client performance.

    You should take a look at https://github.com/shakacode/react_on_rails. I created that repo back in 2015 and it's still going strong. Popmenu.com uses it and we've got 5,000 restaurant chains on the Rails monolith and huge traffic and transaction volume. Check out the html source of a popmenu site, like https://110grill.com. You'll see react-on-rails in the source.

  • SailsJS

    Realtime MVC Framework for Node.js

    As a rails and django dev some things in django are such a pain to set up/maintain, despite being a "less opionated" framework. Also, I hear SailsJS is a good JS framework inspired by rails.

  • Amplication

    Amplication: open-source Node.js backend code generator. An open-source platform that helps developers build backends without spending time on boilerplate & repetitive coding. Including production-ready GraphQL & REST APIs, DB schema, DTOs, filtering, pagination, RBAC, & more.
