  3. simple_form_tailwind_css

    Tailwind components for Simple Form

    The problem I have is the front end. I'm using Rails 7 with Tailwind and I'm hitting all sorts of problems. I don't need anything fancy, basically a form with few text inputs, dropdowns (single and multi-select), and numeric inputs. How do people implement these components? It seems like barely any gems support stimulus/tailwind, for example, Simple-Forms. I've found the workaround repo, but it seems more like a temp fix rather than a real solution.

  4. view_component-form

    Rails FormBuilder for ViewComponent

    In the past I have used simple_form but after a lot of projects I have switched to plain FormBuilder. It became easier to styling every input without headacle. For reusing purpose I’m in flavor of view-component_form gem (it only wraps every input type in a view_component).

NOTE: The number of mentions on this list indicates mentions on common posts plus user suggested alternatives. Hence, a higher number means a more popular project.
