What Hacker News says?

  1. Using Vite with Ruby/Rails is also a modern option [1], really impressed after trying it out. The article "A Rubyist's Guide to Vite.js"[2] from the author of ViteRuby provides a cool deep dive.

  3. As an aside, it's bad practice to use @@ variables (IMO), they're easily clobbered. Class instance variables are much better[1]. I might also add, if you create getters for an instance variable then you don't need to use the @, except in the getter itself (and you don't even need to do that as there is the `attr_reader` helper for that).
