I’m continuously being impressed by the productivity and ease of use enhancements Rails keeps making after all these years it has been around.

Today I discovered that scaffolds generated in brand new --css=tailwind enabled Rails 7 codebase, is generating basic, beautiful Tailwind markup out of the box.

rails g scaffold_controller User username:string

Produces:

Further I have this in my config/application.rb to prevent generating files that I don’t use for every single resource until they are needed:

config.generators do |g|
  g.assets false
  g.helper false
  g.jbuilder false
end

That’s a damn good job Rails community. ❤️
