I asked DHH the other day about the server side aspects of NEW MAGIC and he replied with: https://twitter.com/nickjanetakis/status/1334940603457658883 https://twitter.com/nickjanetakis/status/1334940603457658883
So we know NEW MAGIC will involve a substantial amount of integration with Rails on the server side but it could technically be ported over to other frameworks.
It's interesting because StimulusJS 2.0 and Turbolinks 6 are fully client side based on previous tweets by members of Basecamp. I wonder if NEW MAGIC will be focused on broadcasting real-time updates to the front-end while partial page updates that would normally be server rendered templates could be handled by Turbolinks 6 alone. That would be great news for anyone wanting to create amazing feeling apps with any back-end stack, without going the SPA route.
- mhw 6y agoThis article[1] and the others in the series give an idea of the direction by analysing how hey.com works. The page-updater library looks to bring a more declarative replacement for server-generated JavaScript responses, for example.
