Hey, thanks Onur! I think lots of Rails folks prefer tailwindcss-rails, but after many years of using gem wrappers for JS and CSS libs, I'd prefer to manage frontend dependencies closer to how the broader frontend community manages them.

I've only worked on one Rails project using importmaps, but haven't dug too deeply into myself. So far, it's just not been a big enough benefit to me to be worth the apparent trickiness (at least, from what I've gathered).

I'm using esbuild in most projects.

Ok, you don't understand how much this means to me. 🥹 Album curation could be my life's work.

Ha, that's awesome! 😅 Yeah, that album is just so, so good. I'm dying to see her live now.

Ugh, yeah, breakpoints! 🥲 Yeah, makes sense.

Oh interesting! I assume you must be using a global prefix on Tailwind class names to avoid collisions?
Yeah, I haven't had to convert a lot of custom Sass, just small amounts. Usually I'm just completely replacing it for Tailwind. Straddling the two sounds really challenging!

I'm assuming you have two CSS builds, one for Bootstrap and one for Tailwind. Are the Sass files part of the Tailwind build? I found the major reason I was still using Sass was for nesting, which should be supported with Tailwind. tailwindcss.com/docs/compati...

Yeah, I think Bootstrap 4 was probably too far a distance for many teams to justify the cost, particularly if you'd built out a lot of custom CSS using/extending Bootstrap 3.

I've quoted this a few times lately and then realized no one got the reference. 👴🏻

Ahh yeah, you'd definitely want something client side if you need to do it on-the-fly as the user is entering content.

I've used highlight.js for client side syntax highlighting in the past and it's been pretty good. But I like doing this server-side as just one more step in the html pipeline (markdown rendering, at-mention linking, etc.). Gives me one process for generating the content.

I like to think so. And...my house is draftier than anything you could have up north.

Thanks again for your patience on that, Paul! I hated sitting on an episode through December, but we definitely needed that break. 🙏☺️

Big takeaways for me…
1. Knowing yourself is necessary for doing your best work
2. When you put something good out into the world, it often comes back to you in unexpected ways
3. Finding your "scene" matters, whether you are a product maker or a musician
