Ruby on Rails is back? A superstar frontend framework called Stimulus from Basecamp is coming

Frontend development evolves super fast. It is hard to imagine that how many new frontend libraries and frameworks have appeared in Github these years.

On the other hand, Ruby on Rails, one of the best and powerful full-stack frameworks, drops its popularity continuously since 2015. RoR now tries to get back its popularity by a new framework Stimulus.

Stimulus + SJR + Turbolinks = New frontend practice in 2018?

Stimulus VS VueJS / Angular / React?

Full-stack developer VS Frontend + Backend developer?

Frontend / Backend Separation VS Isolation?

Can Stimulus solve these arugements for years? Let’s us wait and see.
