We turned to React as the UI solution in our Rails app almost 2 years ago. It was the hot thing and I fell in love with the concept of components. While it did work well, I regret the decision. It convoluted our codebase and it seemed like simple tasks took way longer than I estimated. We're now back to doing things the "Rails way" with erb templates, turboklinks, and Stimulus to give us that JS functionality we were looking for when we chose to start using React. It's been a breath of fresh air.
- wlll 8y agoI've started a new project with Rails 6 and Stimulus just recently. Stimiulus really does feel like a breath of fresh air. Just enough to let me do what I need to do without feeling like a burden.
