Next.js to Ruby

I have been working on converting something from Next.js to Ruby. The Next.js version is still more visually appealing to me, but the benefits of working in Ruby far supior to me long term.

Before:

    <Card as="article">
      <Card.Title href={`/articles/${article.slug}`}>
        {article.title}
      </Card.Title>
      <Card.Eyebrow as="time" dateTime={article.date} decorate>
        {formatDate(article.date)}
      </Card.Eyebrow>
      <Card.Description>{article.description}</Card.Description>
      <Card.Cta>Read article</Card.Cta>
    </Card>

      {% end %}
      {%@ Shared::Card::Eyebrow as: :time, dateTime: article.data.date, decorate: true do %}
        {{article.data.date}}
      {% end %}
      {%@ Shared::Card::Description do %}
        {{article.data.description}}
      {% end %}
      {%@ Shared::Card::Cta do %}Read article{% end %}

I have been listening to the “Subtle Art of not Giving a Fuck” and this quote (likely paraphrased incorrectly) stood out to me:

What determines success is not what you want to enjoy, but what pain you are willing to sustain.

If you find yourself with a lot of open VSCode projects, the Peacock extension can add a great visual clue (color) when trying to quickly switch.

TailwindCSS IntelliSense with Serbea

I have been experimenting with Serbea templates with Bridgetown and was not able to get TailwindCSS IntelliSense to work.

Serbea files using the file extension .serb, so my first attempt to configure it looked like this:

1

"tailwindCSS.includeLanguages": {
  "serb": "html"
},

However, what I needed to do was specify the file content type:

"tailwindCSS.includeLanguages": {
  "serbea": "html"
},
