This is over-engineering at its finest, and doesn't answer some questions: When do you want to use a front-end framework, and why?
For at _least_ 90% of the things out there, you don't need a front-end framework like React/Vue/Ember/Angular. And while these front-end frameworks increase the complexity of the app, its trade-off often doesn't nearly provide enough value in terms of speed/extensibility/maintainability to warrant it.
Rendering server-side views is fine: plug-in Turbolinks and have a blast. It's not cool, it won't get you stylepoints with your colleagues, but you should be trying to impress your client/boss with speed/extensibility/maintainability, and not impress with complexity of your stack.
