RailsApps

At the end of April I was invited to speak about Rails Composer at the RubyHACK conference in Salt Lake City. Half the audience already knew about Rails Composer and everyone was very enthusiastic. Judging from the response, Rails Composer has become a popular tool for Rails developers.

After the conference, RubyHACK participant Ian Mercaldi wrote a great blog post on “Starting New Apps With Rails Composer”.

The Kickstarter Campaign

Rails 5.1 is out and I’d like to update Rails Composer to include JavaScript frameworks:

• React
• Angular
• Vue.js

I’d like to ask you to contribute to the Kickstarter campaign to update Rails Composer for Rails 5.1 and add options for JavaScript frameworks. In 2015 I was able to raise $8,505 through a Kickstarter campaign to add Bootstrap templates to Rails Composer. I’m hoping to raise half that amount with the current Kickstarter campaign. If you contribute, there are great rewards such as the Capstone Rails Tutorials and subscriptions to Chris Oliver’s GoRails screencasts and Michael Hartl’s Learn Enough Society.

The community of Rails developers keeps Rails Composer going with its enthusiasm. It’d be great if you can help with a contribution to the Kickstarter campaign.
