I don't care for Webpacker being part of the stack.
It's odd because generally Rails has been reserved on integration such kind of conveniences.
I don't like how its not at easy to start a Rails project as prior
I started hacking on IRC scripts in the late nineties and have been hacking on computers (and businesses) ever since. I love to build, learn, and share.
Yeah, I'm torn on that. I personally have warmed to Rails embracing Webpacker because I've had to support issues with the asset pipeline/sprockets, and there is a lot of friction there. It's not that the old way is bad--I think it fits better into Rails, but it complicates using Rails with the modern JavaScript ecosystem so much that the bad outweighs the good. Webpacker has also been getting a lot better in my experience. I used to dread working with it, but I prefer it now.
I'm a fan of Open Source and have a growing interest in serverless and edge computing. I'm not a big fan of spiders, but they're doing good work eating bugs. I also stream on Twitch.
We use webpacker at DEV and initially, I thought maybe we don't necessarily need it, but it just integrates so well and in some cases, we've had to use the erb-loader 👉🏻 github.com/thepracticaldev/dev.to/...
Overall, I'm pretty happy with the integration.

We're a place where coders share, stay up-to-date and grow their careers.
