Hotwire — Turbo + Stimulus + Strada

HTML Over The Wire | Hotwire

Hotwire is the latest technology stack Basecamp announced based on Rails.

It aims to provide a collection of tools for developers to build an interactive, real-time application, while you do not have to build a separate frontend application (SPA).

The benefits of using Hotwire are as follows:

• reduces the time developer set up an infrastructure for both frontend and backend applications
• reduces the integration tests to be run for testing the interfaces between frontend and backend
• supports real-time push of the application

The Architecture

It provides three separate libraries

• Turbo — working on Server Side to deliver HTML fragment to web browsers by websocket
• Stimulus — working on Client Side Browsers to do an interactive change without the need of server
• Strada — for mobile application processing the HTML fragments to native components. It is not official yet. Hey.com is using that on its mobile applications.
