How do the default affect the ecosystem these days, though? I remember back when I used Rails and CoffeeScript was the standard, it took a bit of work to avoid it altogether. This wasn't difficult, to be fair, but it felt like pointless busywork nonetheless.
- steveklabnik 9y agoI couldn't tell you, as I haven't been really involved in Rails for a while. I never used coffeescript for any serious project, even when this change was made back in 3.1, and I can't remember it ever causing trouble. YMMV.
- rickyc091 9y agojQuery was removed in the latest version of Rails in favor of rails-ujs, essentially a vanilla js version of jQuery so `remote: true` and things like that would still work. Erb / vanilla js is still the default stack for beginners. But they've started to move away from the asset pipeline and they've built in webpack.
