I agree. This seems complex but I am NOT a rails developer. The least complex stack I can find is Svelte (with Sapper) on the front end that calls out to API made in Spring Java. That lets me have quick development on the frontend, server side rendering for fast first page load and use of a typed language for the backend. The client is also overburdened with a large JS framework.
