That makes sense! 😅

The colors looked so bright and saturated that I thought it could be it, given it was also its release day 🙈

Mario Galaxy? 👀

First Ruby LSP beta got released with partial migration to Rubydex 👀

Indexing our Rails application (+ dependencies) currently takes 12s with Ruby LSP's internal indexer.

Rubydex does it in 2s 💯 And I think it's even doing more work.

Shipped ruby_llm-contract v0.5 — contracts for LLM quality in Ruby.

Which model? How much? Did that prompt tweak break accuracy?

Schema + validations, eval against test cases, compare models by score & cost. Start cheap, auto-escalate when quality drops.

This is so great to see, thanks for sharing! 🌿

So great to see how you can utilize the Herb Linter Custom Rules to encode your custom rules and conventions for your own codebase.

Thanks for sharing @janko.io! 🙌

Custom Herb Linter rule that disallows usage of Bootstrap 3 classes, `data-*` attributes or `bootstrap_form_*` helpers Custom Herb Linter rule that disallows usage of Bootstrap 3 classes, `data-*` attributes or `bootstrap_form_*` helpers - no-bootstrap3.js

As part of our migration from Slim to HTML+ERB at work, we're also replacing our legacy Bootstrap 3 usage with Tailwind/modern CSS.

To make it official, I vibe-coded a custom Herb linter rule that disallows Bootstrap 3 usage – gist.github.com/janko/e0e106...

Like, we actually have tooling now 🙌

Less - The Path to Better Design GORUCO 2011: Less - The Path to Better Design (Sandi Metz)

So @jcn.bsky.social rescued some old GORUCO videos from 2010 and 2011 that I just posted up on rubyevents.org, including this killer talk from @sandimetz.bsky.social:

TIL about Herbaceous, hmmm.... 👀

Thank you! And yeah, I agree. The more I work around building tooling for it, the more I have been wondering if we couldn't approach HTML-over-the-wire from a totally different angle.

But for the time being, at least the tooling can now support you with the existing libraries we already have 🙌

I recently wrote a #ruby gem to compare two SimpleCov runs: simplecov-compare. I wrote up a long-form post on my blog about why and how it works.

Awesome! Thanks giving it a shot! ✨

Now that Herb v0.9 is out, we can start advancing the tooling around `<%= render %>` calls, find unused partials, and build up a graph to understand which partials are referenced from which views!

This is also going to be very essential for reactivity.
