README

Work in progress for creating an application template.

INCLUDED GEMS

devise friendly_id sidekiq name_of_person stripe rspec factorybot css-bundling tailwind css

USAGE

When creating a new rails app simply pass the template filename and ruby extension through. I opt for esbuild instead of the default importmap configuration for JavaScript.

$ rails new sample_app -j esbuild -m Rails-kickoff-app/template.rb

For PostgreSQL use

$ rails new sample_app -j esbuild -m Rails-kickoff-app/template.rb --database=postgresql

Once installed what do I get?

Tailwind CSS
Devise with a new name field already migrated in. The name field maps to the first_name and last_name fields in the database thanks to the name_of_person gem.
Enhanced views and devise views using Tailwind CSS.
The Stripe gem installed with the Stripe API to make accepting payments on the web. Be sure to add your own unique API keys.
Support for Friendly IDs thanks to the handy friendly_id gem. Note that you'll still need to do some work inside your models for this to work. This template installs the gem and runs the associated generator.
Rspec-rails testing framework for rails.
Factorybot a fixtures replacement with a straightforward definition syntax, support for multiple build strategies, and support for multiple factories for the same class, including factory inheritance.
Optional Foreman support. Run .bin/dev to kick off rails and Tailwind processes. Foreman needs to be installed as a global gem on your system for this to work. i.e. gem install foreman
Custom view helper defaults for basic button and form elements.
Scaffolding templates made with Tailwind CSS
