I'm Daniel Kehoe, interviewed by Richard MacManus for his article. I suppose we can nitpick semantics, but I think it should be said that Lit is properly a library (and a small one), not a framework. Significantly, since Lit relies onl

Tod, thanks for submitting this. I wrote this guide to installing Ruby with Frum because, after using Frum for a few days, I think it's a great alternative to rbenv, RVM, chruby, or asdf. From the article: "There are no shims (unl

I've written a guide to Install Ruby with Frum[0]. I think it's a great alternative to rbenv, RVM, chruby, or asdf. From the article: "There are no shims (unlike Asdf or Rbenv) and it doesn’t override the cd command (unlike R

I'd also like to see a benchmark against chruby/ruby-install. I believe many developers moved from rbenv to chruby for speed.

State management on the front end? Is that the differentiator that forces the need for a full SPA framework? Anything else that can't be done purely with web components?

This question comes up a lot among Ruby beginners so I wrote an article that goes into detail. I explain why it's worthwhile to install a version manager. I recommend asdf for those developing Rails web applications (which require Ruby

Nyepi (Day of Silence) is tomorrow here in Bali. There will be no radio, tv, cellular data, and the airport will be closed for the day. I kinda like the idea of one Silent Day a year. So if you reply to this comment I won't reply :-)

My story: I had 500 true fans for RailsApps at one point in 2014. They paid $20/month for my Rails tutorials, which supported my open source project. It was wonderful to discover that if you are passionate and deliver your best, often

Author here. Happy to answer any questions. I'm always interested in hearing anyone's recollections of their first encounters with the web.

Are you using JavaScript build tools? May not need them if you use module CDNs like jspm.dev or skypack. ES6 imports may solve the load order issues.

The article states a stackless approach can't work "at scale." I think people who use web components will argue that web components are great when you're working at scale. (Disclosure: I'm quoted in the article.)

I've heard of that but never tried it. I'm curious why you don't use a Ruby version manager.

I always heard this advice but didn’t know why. So I looked into it. Basically, the system Ruby is fine for running sysadmin scripts (as long as you don’t add gems or try to update it). But don’t use it for development because: - the defaul

Adding Webpack to Rails 6 added enormous complexity. Now DHH is trying to unwind that. Maybe the maintainers will remove Webpack in Rails 7? In any case, I love DHH's concept of "conceptual compression."

Actually I should add, I wrote a bit more nuanced recommendation in the installation guide. I say: Install with Homebrew if you’re building only one project with Ruby (especially if you are a student learning Ruby). If you’re a solo develop

It's growing in popularity in the Rails community (probably because Rails now requires both Ruby and Node). Previously I recommended chruby in my installation guide for Ruby [0] and Rails [1], but after doing an informal survey of Rail
