Expected compile speed ? about tailwindcss-rails HOT 8 CLOSED

@defsdoor Sorry, I swear I double checked that before posting 😅

Is this using webpacker or the asset pipeline? If webpacker, it is what it is. We don't really have any control over that.

Sorry - this is webpacker - do I have an option to not use webpacker yet when rolling with hotwire and stimulus (this is a brand new application I'm writing primarily to familiarise myself with these two) ?

@defsdoor The short tutorial on https://hotwire.dev/ doesn't rely on webpacker, it's using the asset pipeline. This should get you started.

Here’s how I start a new Hotwire app without webpacker.

rails new myapp --skip-javascripts

This skips webpacker, turbolinks and rails ujs.

Then add gem 'hotwire-rails' to your gemfile

bundle install
rails hotwire:install

This gives you a new rails app with a beautiful assets/javascripts folder with turbo and stimulus ready to go.

@leehericks thanks for this - giving it a go now.

BTW - the option is --skip-javascript

@dmarcoux cheers

All seems to work ok - thank you all.

I'm really interested in tailwind - is anyone aware of a project or efforts to create a sass based version ? To me, using sass mixins is much more comfortable than postcss (and the beast it requires) rendering of the css.

I've already hit a need to add a minor customisation.
I guess I could do any customisations infrequently and generate a new tailwind.css outside of the development environment when needed.

Yes, if the app doesn't have webpacker, then it'll use the asset pipeline. --skip-javascript
