Here is the page after you create a user: I clearly haven’t quite got the variable use right here: the in the create that reads the incoming parameters is the important thing though. Naturally, whatever Ruby I did have wasn’t high enough: I have an rvm (Ruby enVironment Management), so let’s try to install a new ruby to match what we need for Rails. I’ll try using a generator, so I don’t have to remember all the files needed.I’ll assume that you are comfortable with what Rails is and its basic tenets, but maybe (like me) you haven’t done all this stuff for a while. So, let’s start with a simple Rails installation. So I thought it might be time to fire up a Rails project and see how that went. It seems to give you JavaScript-like abilities without actually having to write any. So I was intrigued by the idea of “ HTML Over the Wire” and Hotwire specifically. I’ve always thought Ruby on Rails was a little easier to manage because it was “opinionated” - even if it was a little too keen to push you into a database. And admittedly, I did like the control that media queries gave me with responsive web design. Since the birth of node.js, there have been plenty of devs who are happy to use JavaScript exclusively - for both client and server. Now, as a pragmatic developer, I recognize why I might need JavaScript, but I’d always prefer to be in the more comfortable confines of a bigger language. But there’s one thing I have been consistent with: I don’t want to write JavaScript if I don’t have to. This is a typical romantic journey for most developers falling for a shiny new methodology, only to flirt with a statically typed language later. Ruby was my first love, my first language was C, and now I go steady with C#.
