"If you learn for Rails, start with 5.2.3, webpacker and the other black magic in Rails 6 will frustrate you and currently eliminates a lot of the ease of getting started and building relatively sophisticated web apps quickly."
Anyone else agree with this?
- buf 6y agoNope. Webpacker is here to stay and takes about 5 minutes to understand. Might as well take advantage of it so you can quickly add complex front end components via React or whatever flavor of FE you prefer.
- adsteel_ 6y agoI agree, webpacker makes learning Rails harder. It's a shame. But learning on a non current version is a short term solution. A good tutorial, like Michael Hartl's, will get you over that hump.
- zeku 6y agoI'm learning rails 6 right now for a work project, and webpacker is just broken so I can't even get hello world to work.
