One thing I've really enjoyed while building https://letsjelly.com is working on a clean #Rails & #Stimulus stack.

I was worried for a while that not learning #React was going to end up biting me, but I've found Stimulus to be both easy to get into, and a powerful way to reuse JS around and between projects.

@james I've done my fair share of React and the Hotwire stuff is a breath of fresh air, I've been enjoying it too.

@chrislowis Turbo can still result in some unexpected tangles, but we've used it to add quite a lot of dynamic updating into Jelly (notification counts, inbox updating as messages are received and sent, etc) and it definitely feels "alive" when you use it.

I'm looking forward to switching to Turbo 8 and seeing if Idiomorph can make it even simpler.

@james yes, it certainly feels more "magical" and catches me out in odd ways.
