I've used turbo/stimulus/hotwire. It's best suited for STATELESS interactions withe the browser/web page. The problem is not all desired user experiences and use cases are stateless. And the ecosystem for hotwire is a minuscule fraction of all the other popular js frameworks.
If you're searching for inventory available its perfect. However if you want to update one thing based on the most recently touched input it becomes more complicated and in all honesty more trouble that it's worth.
Honestly if you're a solo Rails dev, use whatever you want. However the React ecosystem, and really all of the other popular JS ecosystems (vue, ), are very strong and you have so many available options. Stimulus is 2 steps back from jQuery, it inverted the Event delegation pattern. No one else outside of the rails community is using it.
This post is certainly being critical, but I'm also not here to bring the hammer down. I am saying that it has grown very popular, and that makes it harder to get noticed. I know more than a few people have publicly complained on twitter about how their startup listing has been removed or bumped.
I also know there are a lot of scammers out there that PH has to battle against, trying to game the system. I know the people at G2.com when they started and were giving away free ipads for the top people with the most software reviews in a month, and someone tried to jump ahead by downvoting all the reviews of the people ahead of them in a month.
Clearly though expectations have changed. I'm certainly bummed for the 60% of the staff who were laid off. You can't just share your startup without some serious work beforehand or else you risk blowing your shot at 15 minutes of startup internet fame.
My point is not that PH is dying or not, but the game has changed and it has hurt makers who do this for the hope of making a full time living, and we're being crowded out by VC funded startups and previous PH launchers who have had past success (i.e. Tallyforms) that are "relaunching" and sucking up the little amount of attention available on PH. It's frustrating.
Are you saying that the one letter typo on the one of my many points surrounding the drama at Product Hunt discredit the whole thing? No I do not.
Maybe I should have shared in the article all the twitter posts where indie hackers are upset how they are getting screwed and how hard it is to get ranked on PH. There is a lot more drama surrounding PH than just the CTO not knowing one well known community member.
Heroku is the OG of affordable rails hosting. If the tutorial is older than 3-4 years ago then it was published when Heroku was free, which it no longer is.
There are lots of other affordable, but probably not free, options now;
you can't manage permissions very well or precisely. You can give a user "read only" or "edit" but you cannot manage individual sheets or cells. Spreadsheets are great for lots of things, but sharing them with lots of people is not one of them.
higher altitude means less oxygen, means you need to inhale/exhale more to get the proper amount of oxygen, and also faster heart rate. Is it possible the metabolism of people at higher altitudes burn more calories just trying to get the same amount of oxygen?
I'll refine it. I scraped a lot of sites and some of them were terrible. I just figured it was better to have the data there and let users decide as opposed to not having anything. I can see scraping some numbers related to traffic and using that for ranking.
Where are all those fanboys who whenever Elon would make a bone headed move, they would correct you about how no Elon is a genius and here's why. I desperately want to hear what they have to say this time.
There are ways to keep things simple with the front end, only add js for the things where you want instant visual feedback. It requires a little pushback on the part of the dev team, against UX and Product management.
Notice I said profitable niche. You won't magically become the profitable behemoth that Slack will. But you can build a company just on this one angle.
