A few weeks ago because there were 2 HN comment sections shitting on NextJS endlessly, I decided to go back to Rails.
I have ported a chunk of my likely last full stack JS project over to Rails with AI vibe coding everything as a reference for me to redo it again with AI but not vibe coding.
Absolutely amazing work. About 40% of that NextJS app was vibe coded and the process of undoing the excessive and verbose code was depressing me.
The Ruby and Rails code is simple and understandable and a fraction of the lines of code.
Last sentence exactly. I am using IntertiaJS for some of the frontend and I finally don’t dislike JS any more. React is amazing when it’s only a view library.
