My shortlist of Ruby gems
Bài đăng này đã không được cập nhật trong 9 năm
There are always gems for anything, but sometimes there are too many gems for a thing I need, so what gems to choose. Ruby Toolbox is a nice place for that purpose, but it is not always convenience looking there.
I also do not want to remember a (long) list of frequence use gems.
Therefore, follow the criteria from this article: A Guide to Choosing the Best Gems for Your Ruby Project, I create my own shortlist of Ruby gems so when I need, I can make a quick scan through this article.
Template
- slim / slim-rails (recommend)
- haml
Pagination
- Kaminari (recommend)
- will_paginate (less active)
There are also gems that help integrating Kaminari/will_paginate with Bootstrap such as will_paginate-bootstrap, bootstrap-kaminari-views.
