Poem

A bunny boots a Rails app quick,
Hops through packs and webpack tricks.
Docs refreshed, the paths are clear,
Turbo’s checked, the page draws near.
With gentle thumps, the tests all pass—
Hello, world! in verdant class. 🐇✨

spec/quick-start/db/seeds.rb (1)

3-3: Consider mentioning bin/rails db:prepare alongside db:seed/db:setup.

Rails 7+ commonly uses db:prepare in dev/test flows; adding it helps newcomers.

spec/quick-start/public/robots.txt (1)

1-1: Consider disallowing indexing for the example app.

Prevents accidental crawling if the example is ever hosted.

 # See https://www.robotstxt.org/robotstxt.html for documentation on how to use the robots.txt file
+User-agent: *
+Disallow: /
spec/quick-start/app/javascript/packs/application.js (2)

7-8: Update helper reference to Shakapacker’s chunks helper.

Prefer javascript_packs_with_chunks_tag for code-splitting setups.

-// To reference this file, add <%= javascript_pack_tag 'application' %> to the appropriate
+// To reference this file, add <%= javascript_packs_with_chunks_tag 'application' %> to the appropriate

10-15: Optional: modernize asset helper comment.

If you plan to include images, consider noting asset_pack_path usage too; otherwise leave commented-out block as-is.

spec/quick-start/app/views/pwa/manifest.json.erb (1)

20-21: Nit: prefer explicit hex colors for better tooling/Lighthouse compatibility.

Named colors work but hex is less ambiguous across tooling. See diff above.

spec/quick-start/config/initializers/assets.rb (1)

4-4: LGTM; add precompile entries if PWA icons move under app/assets.

If you adopt asset_path in the manifest and store icons in app/assets/images, explicitly precompile them to avoid surprises.

 Rails.application.config.assets.version = "1.0"
+
+# PWA / favicon assets (only if stored under app/assets)
+# Rails will fingerprint these and the manifest will reference them via asset_path.
+Rails.application.config.assets.precompile += %w[
+  icons/icon-192x192.png
+  icons/icon-512x512.png
+  icons/icon-512x512-maskable.png
+  apple-touch-icon.png
+  favicon.ico
+]
spec/quick-start/config/boot.rb (1)

3-4: Make Bootsnap require resilient across environments.

If bootsnap isn’t installed in some environments, avoid a hard failure.

 require "bundler/setup" # Set up gems listed in the Gemfile.
-require "bootsnap/setup" # Speed up boot time by caching expensive operations.
+begin
+  require "bootsnap/setup" # Speed up boot time by caching expensive operations.
+rescue LoadError
+  # bootsnap not available; continue without it
+end
spec/quick-start/config/initializers/content_security_policy.rb (1)

19-21: Use a cryptographically strong per-request nonce.

Avoid deriving the nonce from session id; prefer SecureRandom for unpredictability.

spec/quick-start/app/channels/application_cable/connection.rb (1)

1-4: Consider identifying connections and auth checks.

Add identified_by and a connect method to tie sockets to users/sessions and reject unauthorized connections. This helps future channel auth.

 module ApplicationCable
   class Connection < ActionCable::Connection::Base
+    # identified_by :current_user
+    # def connect
+    #   self.current_user = find_verified_user
+    # end
   end
 end
spec/quick-start/bin/shakapacker (1)

1-13: Minor robustness: derive Gemfile from APP_ROOT and flush stdout.

Unify path derivation with APP_ROOT and enable real-time logs.

 #!/usr/bin/env ruby
 
 ENV["RAILS_ENV"] ||= "development"
-ENV["BUNDLE_GEMFILE"] ||= File.expand_path("../../Gemfile", __FILE__)
+APP_ROOT = File.expand_path("..", __dir__)
+ENV["BUNDLE_GEMFILE"] ||= File.expand_path("Gemfile", APP_ROOT)
 
 require "bundler/setup"
 require "shakapacker"
 require "shakapacker/webpack_runner"
 
-APP_ROOT = File.expand_path("..", __dir__)
+$stdout.sync = true
 Dir.chdir(APP_ROOT) do
   Shakapacker::WebpackRunner.run(ARGV)
 end
spec/quick-start/Procfile.dev-static (1)

9-9: Avoid nuking all compiled assets; preserve sentinel files and reduce race risk.

Wiping public/packs on every start can cause brief 404s and removes .keep. Prefer targeted cleanup.

-webpack: sh -c 'rm -rf public/packs/* || true && bin/shakapacker -w'
+webpack: sh -c 'find public/packs -mindepth 1 -maxdepth 1 ! -name ".keep" -exec rm -rf {} + || true && bin/shakapacker -w'
spec/quick-start/config/initializers/permissions_policy.rb (1)

6-13: Enable a safe baseline Permissions-Policy in production.

Lock down high-risk features; keep example simple and non-breaking.

-# Rails.application.config.permissions_policy do |policy|
-#   policy.camera      :none
-#   policy.gyroscope   :none
-#   policy.microphone  :none
-#   policy.usb         :none
-#   policy.fullscreen  :self
-#   policy.payment     :self, "https://secure.example.com"
-# end
+Rails.application.config.permissions_policy do |policy|
+  # Strict baseline; relax as needed.
+  policy.camera      :none
+  policy.microphone  :none
+  policy.geolocation :none
+  policy.usb         :none
+  policy.gyroscope   :none
+  policy.fullscreen  :self
+  policy.payment     :self
+end if Rails.env.production?
spec/quick-start/config/puma.rb (2)

23-27: Cast env-derived settings to integers to avoid implicit type coercion

Puma accepts strings here, but explicit .to_i avoids surprises when env vars are set.

-threads_count = ENV.fetch("RAILS_MAX_THREADS", 3)
-threads threads_count, threads_count
+threads_count = ENV.fetch("RAILS_MAX_THREADS", 3).to_i
+threads threads_count, threads_count

-# Specifies the `port` that Puma will listen on to receive requests; default is 3000.
-port ENV.fetch("PORT", 3000)
+# Specifies the `port` that Puma will listen on to receive requests; default is 3000.
+port ENV.fetch("PORT", 3000).to_i

26-27: Optional: make container/dev usage a bit smoother

If you expect Docker usage, consider binding on all interfaces.

-# Specifies the `port` that Puma will listen on to receive requests; default is 3000.
-port ENV.fetch("PORT", 3000).to_i
+# Specifies the `port` that Puma will listen on to receive requests; default is 3000.
+port ENV.fetch("PORT", 3000).to_i
+# bind "tcp://0.0.0.0:#{ENV.fetch('PORT', 3000)}"
spec/quick-start/config/initializers/filter_parameter_logging.rb (1)

6-8: Good baseline; consider adding common variants and regexes for broader coverage

This widens protection without impacting dev ergonomics.

 Rails.application.config.filter_parameters += [
-  :passw, :email, :secret, :token, :_key, :crypt, :salt, :certificate, :otp, :ssn
+  :passw, :password, :password_confirmation,
+  :email, :secret, :token, :_key, :crypt, :salt, :certificate, :otp, :ssn,
+  # Regex to catch common auth/token keys in any nesting/case
+  /authorization/i, /bearer/i, /access[_-]?token/i, /refresh[_-]?token/i, /client[_-]?secret/i
 ]
spec/quick-start/app/assets/stylesheets/application.css (1)

13-14: Optionally avoid require_tree to prevent accidental CSS bloat/conflicts with Shakapacker-managed CSS.

If CSS is primarily bundled via Shakapacker/CSS Modules, consider removing the wildcard include.

- *= require_tree .
- *= require_self
+ *= require_self
spec/quick-start/app/views/pwa/service-worker.js (1)

1-26: Harden the sample: guard null push data and restrict navigation to same-origin paths.

Even as a template, safer defaults help avoid copy-paste pitfalls.

-// self.addEventListener("push", async (event) => {
-//   const { title, options } = await event.data.json()

spec/quick-start/public/packs/css/hello-world-bundle.css (1)

1-10: Avoid committing compiled packs; ignore public/packs or include matching source maps.

This is a build artifact with hashed class names that will churn. Either:

  • Remove from VCS and add ignore rules, or
  • Keep it and commit the matching .map (or strip the sourceMappingURL).

Recommended adds:

+// spec/quick-start/.gitignore
+/public/packs/*
+!/public/packs/.keep

If you keep this file, also consider:

-/*# sourceMappingURL=hello-world-bundle.css.map*/
+/* source map omitted in VCS */
spec/quick-start/app/views/layouts/hello_world.html.erb (2)

6-6: Consider packs-with-chunks helper for code-splitting friendliness.

If you add code-splitting later, this ensures all required chunks are included when the page loads (especially after SSR).

Apply:

-    <%= javascript_pack_tag 'hello-world-bundle' %>
+    <%= javascript_packs_with_chunks_tag 'hello-world-bundle' %>

4-7: Add CSP and viewport meta for security and responsive defaults.

Minor hardening and better mobile rendering.

Avoids confusion between client and server bundles.

Apply:

-// This is how react_on_rails can see the HelloWorld in the browser.
+// This registers HelloWorld for server-side rendering (SSR) with ReactOnRails.
spec/quick-start/bin/rake (1)

1-4: Optional: match Rails’ default bin/rake for consistency.

Using Gem.bin_path avoids requiring app boot for simple rake usage.

Apply this diff if you prefer the canonical Rails stub:

-#!/usr/bin/env ruby
-require_relative "../config/boot"
-require "rake"
-Rake.application.run

+load Gem.bin_path("rake", "rake")
spec/quick-start/bin/rubocop (1)

5-8: Don’t override user-provided --config.

-ARGV.unshift("--config", File.expand_path("../.rubocop.yml", __dir__))
+# Explicit rubocop config increases performance slightly while avoiding config confusion.

4-4: Use yield/content_for? for title (prevents nil rendering edge cases).

Prefer the idiomatic check to avoid emitting "":

-    <title><%= content_for(:title) || "Quick Start" %></title>
+    <title><%= content_for?(:title) ? yield(:title) : "Quick Start" %></title>

2-3: Add lang and charset for a11y and correct encoding.

-<html>
+<html lang="en">
   <head>
+    <meta charset="utf-8">

16-17: Prefer pack helpers; defer script to avoid blocking render.

If CSS is extracted from the application pack, use the pack helper; also defer JS:

-    <%= stylesheet_link_tag "application" %>
-    <%= javascript_pack_tag "application" %>
+    <%= stylesheet_pack_tag "application", media: "all", "data-turbo-track": "reload" %>
+    <%= javascript_pack_tag "application", defer: true %>

If you enforce a strict CSP, consider passing a nonce as well.


12-15: Verify manifest/icon URLs align with routes or assets.

You’re linking to “/manifest.json” and “/icon.(png|svg)”. If these are routed endpoints (e.g., /manifest), use the proper path helpers or correct paths to avoid 404s.

I can adjust to helpers once you confirm the route names or asset locations.

spec/quick-start/config/webpack/clientWebpackConfig.js (1)

1-2: Guard deletion of server-bundle entry; update comment for webpack 5; fix trailing space.

1-2: Prettier nits.

Trim trailing spaces on Line 1 and keep comment lines wrapped to satisfy Prettier.

spec/quick-start/config/webpack/webpack.config.js (2)

5-13: Tighten linting/robustness: add semicolons, remove else-after-return, provide NODE_ENV fallback, and annotate dynamic require.

This addresses Prettier errors and typical ESLint rules while keeping the dynamic loading behavior.

Apply:

-const { env } = require('shakapacker')
-const { existsSync } = require('fs')
-const { resolve } = require('path')
+const { env } = require('shakapacker');

9-9: Dynamic require rule.

If you prefer avoiding disables, replace dynamic require with a static map: { development: require('./development'), production: require('./production'), test: require('./test') }[nodeEnv].

spec/quick-start/bin/dev (2)

4-8: installed? leaks a pipe and doesn’t reliably return a boolean; use system(...) instead

Avoid IO.popen here; it leaves an FD open and treats non‑zero exits as “installed.” Use system with null I/O for a true/false result.

-  IO.popen "#{process} -v"
-rescue Errno::ENOENT
-  false
-end
+def installed?(process)
+  system(process, "-v", out: File::NULL, err: File::NULL)

spec/quick-start/.github/workflows/ci.yml (5)

1-7: This workflow won’t run from spec/quick-start/.github/workflows

GitHub only loads workflows from .github/workflows at the repo root. If this is meant to be executable (not just an example), move it; if it’s an example, note that in README.


22-24: Prefer bundle exec for Brakeman; bin/brakeman may not exist

-      - name: Scan for common Rails security vulnerabilities using static analysis
-        run: bin/brakeman --no-pager
+      - name: Scan for common Rails security vulnerabilities using static analysis
+        run: bundle exec brakeman --no-pager

38-40: importmap audit is mismatched for a Shakapacker app

Switch to an npm audit (or retire the job) and install Node first.

-      - name: Scan for security vulnerabilities in JavaScript dependencies
-        run: bin/importmap audit
+      - name: Set up Node
+        uses: actions/setup-node@v4
+        with:

66-68: Apt-installing google-chrome-stable will fail on ubuntu-latest

Use a maintained action to install Chrome (and Chromedriver if needed) instead of apt.

-      - name: Install packages
-        run: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install --no-install-recommends -y google-chrome-stable curl libjemalloc2 libvips sqlite3
+      - name: Install packages

+        uses: browser-actions/setup-chrome@v1
+      - name: Setup Chromedriver
+        uses: nanasess/setup-chromedriver@v2

78-83: Consider running system tests via RAILS_ENV=test with precompiled or committed assets

If you ever stop committing public/packs, add a precompile step before tests. Otherwise, ensure test env serves from committed packs.

+      - name: (Optional) Precompile assets for test
+        env:
+          RAILS_ENV: test
+        run: bundle exec rails assets:precompile
spec/quick-start/config/routes.rb (1)

10-11: Prefer canonical PWA paths (/service-worker.js, /manifest.json).

Using the conventional filenames avoids surprises in browser SW scope and manifest discovery. Recommend renaming the routes accordingly.

Apply:

-  get "service-worker" => "rails/pwa#service_worker", as: :pwa_service_worker
-  get "manifest" => "rails/pwa#manifest", as: :pwa_manifest
+  get "service-worker.js" => "rails/pwa#service_worker", as: :pwa_service_worker
+  get "manifest.json" => "rails/pwa#manifest", as: :pwa_manifest
spec/quick-start/config/webpack/test.js (2)

4-10: Prettier fixes and minor polish.

Terminate statements; keep style consistent with the rest of the config wrappers.

-const webpackConfig = require('./webpackConfig')
+const webpackConfig = require('./webpackConfig');
 
-const testOnly = (_clientWebpackConfig, _serverWebpackConfig) => {
+const testOnly = (_clientWebpackConfig, _serverWebpackConfig) => {
   // place any code here that is for test only
-}
+};
 
-module.exports = webpackConfig(testOnly)
+module.exports = webpackConfig(testOnly);

6-8: Optional: test-only hardening (disable cache, bail on first error).

Keeps CI feedback fast and deterministic in test builds.

 const testOnly = (_clientWebpackConfig, _serverWebpackConfig) => {
-  // place any code here that is for test only
+  // test-only adjustments
+  for (const cfg of [_clientWebpackConfig, _serverWebpackConfig]) {
+    if (!cfg) continue;
+    cfg.cache = false;
+    cfg.bail = true;
+    cfg.stats = 'errors-only';
+  }
 };
spec/quick-start/app/javascript/bundles/HelloWorld/components/HelloWorld.jsx (1)

3-3: Destructure props and import CSS Modules via default export.

Aligns with eslint rule and typical css-loader behavior; also avoids accidental page reload on Enter.

-import * as style from './HelloWorld.module.css';
+import styles from './HelloWorld.module.css';
@@
-const HelloWorld = (props) => {
-  const [name, setName] = useState(props.name);
+const HelloWorld = ({ name: initialName }) => {
+  const [name, setName] = useState(initialName);

-      <form>
-        <label className={style.bright} htmlFor="name">
+      <form onSubmit={(e) => e.preventDefault()}>
+        <label className={styles.bright} htmlFor="name">

Also applies to: 5-7, 12-16

spec/quick-start/config/webpack/webpackConfig.js (1)

16-16: Typo in comment (“the the”).

Small doc polish.

-  // For HMR, need to separate the the client and server webpack configurations
+  // For HMR, need to separate the client and server webpack configurations
spec/quick-start/babel.config.js (3)

5-7: Tidy require and semicolons; ensure arrays exist before spreading.

Prevents linter noise and guards against undefined presets/plugins if the base preset changes.

-module.exports = function (api) {
-  const defaultConfigFunc = require('shakapacker/package/babel/preset.js')
-  const resultConfig = defaultConfigFunc(api)
-  const isProductionEnv = api.env('production')
+module.exports = function (api) {
+  const defaultConfigFunc = require('shakapacker/package/babel/preset');
+  const resultConfig = defaultConfigFunc(api);
+  const isProductionEnv = api.env('production');
+  resultConfig.presets = resultConfig.presets || [];
+  resultConfig.plugins = resultConfig.plugins || [];

12-17: Remove unsupported option from @babel/preset-react.

useBuiltIns is not a valid option for @babel/preset-react; keep only development.

-        '@babel/preset-react',
-        {
-          development: !isProductionEnv,
-          useBuiltIns: true
-        }
+        '@babel/preset-react',
+        { development: !isProductionEnv }

20-26: Semicolons and spacing.

Minor Prettier cleanups.

-      process.env.WEBPACK_SERVE && 'react-refresh/babel',
-      isProductionEnv && ['babel-plugin-transform-react-remove-prop-types',
-        {
-          removeImport: true

Also applies to: 29-33

spec/quick-start/config/environments/test.rb (1)

34-36: Consider using the :test Active Job adapter

Prevents real job execution and accumulates enqueued jobs for assertions.

   # Store uploaded files on the local file system in a temporary directory.
   config.active_storage.service = :test
+  # Use the :test adapter so jobs don't actually run.
+  config.active_job.queue_adapter = :test
spec/quick-start/config/webpack/serverWebpackConfig.js (5)

4-8: Order imports: external before local; also fix unused import warning

Move the webpack require above the relative import and keep merge now that it’s used.

-const { merge, config } = require('shakapacker');
-const commonWebpackConfig = require('./commonWebpackConfig');
-
-const webpack = require('webpack');
+const { merge, config } = require('shakapacker');
+const webpack = require('webpack');
+const commonWebpackConfig = require('./commonWebpackConfig');

29-39: Remove redundant loader pass or rewrite to avoid param reassign

This early pass only filters mini-css-extract-plugin and duplicates the later rules pass. Also violates no-param-reassign. Prefer removing this block and handling everything in the single rules pass below.

-  // Remove the mini-css-extract-plugin from the style loaders because
-  // the client build will handle exporting CSS.
-  // replace file-loader with null-loader
-  serverWebpackConfig.module.rules.forEach((loader) => {
-    if (loader.use && loader.use.filter) {
-      loader.use = loader.use.filter(
-        (item) => !(typeof item === 'string' && item.match(/mini-css-extract-plugin/)),
-      );
-    }
-  });
+  // CSS extraction handled by client build; server should not extract CSS.

41-45: Fully disable chunking for server bundle

LimitChunkCount prevents multiple chunks, but also disable splitChunks/runtimeChunk explicitly to avoid surprises from defaults.

   // No splitting of chunks for a server bundle
   serverWebpackConfig.optimization = {
-    minimize: false,
+    minimize: false,
+    splitChunks: false,
+    runtimeChunk: false,
   };

29-31: Comment is misleading

“replace file-loader with null-loader” is not implemented. Either implement null-loader or update the comment (the later rules set emitFile=false).

-  // replace file-loader with null-loader
+  // Skip emitting files server-side; client build handles assets.

1-3: Run Prettier/Eslint

There’s a trailing space at Line 1 (prettier) and prior import-order warnings. Formatting after the above diffs should pass lint.

spec/quick-start/config/environments/development.rb (1)

76-78: Strong params: consider raising on unpermitted parameters in dev

Helpful for catching controller param issues early.

   # Raise error when a before_action's only/except options reference missing actions.
   config.action_controller.raise_on_missing_callback_actions = true
+  # Surface strong parameter issues loudly in development.
+  # config.action_controller.action_on_unpermitted_parameters = :raise
spec/quick-start/config/environments/production.rb (2)

23-31: Gate static file serving by env for container/proxy deployments

Commented public_file_server.enabled can lead to 404s if an upstream proxy isn’t serving assets. Prefer the conventional env toggle.

-# config.public_file_server.enabled = false
+config.public_file_server.enabled = ENV["RAILS_SERVE_STATIC_FILES"].present?

Also ensure the README mentions running rails assets:precompile (Shakapacker compile) before starting in production.


51-56: Consider assuming SSL behind reverse proxies

force_ssl = true is set, but many platforms terminate TLS at the edge. Enabling assume_ssl avoids mis-detected schemes and mixed-cookie issues.

-# config.assume_ssl = true
+config.assume_ssl = true
+# Optionally exclude health-check from redirects:
+# config.ssl_options = { redirect: { exclude: ->(r) { r.path == "/up" } } }

If you don’t want this on by default, gate with ENV["ASSUME_SSL"].

spec/quick-start/.dockerignore (1)

47-48: Consider excluding only the root Dockerfile.

The current pattern /Dockerfile* may unintentionally exclude Dockerfiles in subdirectories that might be needed for the build context.

-/.dockerignore
-/Dockerfile*
+/.dockerignore
+/Dockerfile
+/Dockerfile.*
spec/quick-start/Dockerfile (2)

20-23: Add test environment to BUNDLE_WITHOUT for production builds.

The current configuration excludes development but includes test, which may unnecessarily increase the production image size.

-    BUNDLE_WITHOUT="development"
+    BUNDLE_WITHOUT="development test"

48-50: Remove unnecessary blank lines.

Multiple consecutive blank lines reduce code readability.

🛠️ Refactor suggestion

Restrict high-risk commands and avoid committing local settings with permissive “allow”.

Allowing git push (and similar) to run unattended is risky. Move it to “ask” (or remove), and consider not committing a local settings file—commit an example file instead.

.claude/settings.local.json lines 1-19: the settings file currently grants
high-risk commands in "allow" (e.g., "Bash(git push:*)", "Bash(git commit:*)",
"Bash(git checkout:*)") which is unsafe; move those risky entries from "allow"
into "ask" (or remove them entirely), and keep only low-risk build/dev commands
in "allow". Also avoid committing a local settings file: rename this file to
.claude/settings.local.example.json (or create that example) and add
.claude/settings.local.json to .gitignore so actual local configs with
permissive permissions are not checked in.

In docs/quick-start/README.md around lines 47 to 51, the README lists generated
React component files as being placed in `client/` but the generator and sample
app use `app/javascript`; update the documentation to mention `app/javascript`
instead of `client/` so it aligns with Rails + Shakapacker conventions and the
PR example, and adjust any other occurrences in this section to reference
`app/javascript` consistently.

Remove compiled assets from VCS.

This is a build artifact and will cause noisy diffs and bloat. The quick-start instructs users to run the dev/build steps, so committing public/packs/** isn’t necessary.

Reference prior learning about excluding generated artifacts in this repo family. Add to .gitignore (if not already):

+spec/quick-start/public/packs/
+spec/quick-start/public/assets/

Consider removing existing committed files:

git rm -r --cached spec/quick-start/public/packs

I can prepare a follow-up PR patch to drop these artifacts if you prefer.

In spec/quick-start/public/packs/js/application.js lines 1-33 the file is a
compiled Webpack build artifact and should not be checked into VCS; remove these
generated assets from the repo and stop tracking them by adding the appropriate
ignore rule (e.g. spec/quick-start/public/packs/ or public/packs/) to
.gitignore, then run git rm -r --cached spec/quick-start/public/packs (or git rm
--cached <paths>) to untrack the files and commit the .gitignore and the
removal; ensure the quick-start docs still instruct users to run the dev/build
steps locally.

⚠️ Potential issue

Remove dev-built bundle; it leaks an absolute local path and dev-only metadata

This bundle embeds _jsxFileName with your local path (/Users/justin/...) and React dev __source metadata. That’s PII, inflates bundle size, and shouldn’t be versioned. Generated packs under public/packs/** should be build artifacts, not source.

Leverage our prior learning about avoiding generated artifacts in-repo (e.g., not committing node_package/lib/ReactOnRails.full.js) and treat public/packs/** similarly.

Apply:

+# .gitignore (repo root)
+public/packs/
+spec/quick-start/public/packs/

Then delete committed files:

-// spec/quick-start/public/packs/js/hello-world-bundle.js
-// (remove file)

If you want a checked-in “static” example, commit only source under app/javascript/** and rely on ./bin/dev or a production build to generate packs.

In spec/quick-start/public/packs/js/hello-world-bundle.js (lines 16-43) the
committed bundle contains dev-only React metadata and an absolute local path
(_jsxFileName and __source), which are build artifacts and PII — remove the
generated file(s) from the repository, stop committing public/packs/** by adding
that path (or the specific bundle pattern) to .gitignore, remove any
already-tracked pack files via git rm --cached so they stop being versioned, and
ensure only source lives under app/javascript/** with builds produced by your
dev/prod build process when needed (keep a human-authored static example only in
source, not generated bundles).

🛠️ Refactor suggestion

Do not commit Webpack runtime output; also exclude from linters

This is generated code. It should be removed from VCS and excluded from linting (Biome warnings about re-declarations are expected in bundled runtimes).

Apply:

+# .gitignore
+public/packs/
+spec/quick-start/public/packs/

Biome config ignore (example):

+// biome.json
+{
+  "files": {
+    "ignore": ["public/**", "spec/quick-start/public/**", "node_modules/**", "dist/**"]
+  }
+}

Then delete the committed file:

-// spec/quick-start/public/packs/js/runtime.js
-// (remove file)
📝 Committable suggestion

‼️ IMPORTANT
Carefully review the code before committing. Ensure that it accurately replaces the highlighted code, contains no missing lines, and has no issues with indentation. Thoroughly test & benchmark the code to ensure it meets the requirements.

Updated performance comparison link in release notes.
Updated CHANGELOG to reflect changes in version 15.0.0 including breaking changes, improvements, and fixes.
Added a link to the Changelog for version 15.0.0.
…anges in version 15.0.0 (#1759)

* Update CHANGELOG with detailed migration instructions for breaking changes in version 15.0.0

* Replace performance comparison link with an image in release notes for version 15.0.0
* Improve naming clarity in pageLifecycle.ts

The main improvements:
- Rename setupTurbolinksEventListeners() to setupPageNavigationListeners()
  to better reflect that it handles multiple navigation libraries, not just Turbolinks
- Rename isEventListenerInitialized to isPageLifecycleInitialized for clarity
- Extract hasNavigationLibrary variable to make the conditional logic clearer
- Update debug messages to be more descriptive ("DETECTED" vs "USING")
- Emphasize that the normal use case is NO navigation library

These changes make the code more self-documenting and easier to understand,
especially given that most users don't use Turbolinks at all.

71-74: Make the DOMContentLoaded handler one-shot.

Avoid keeping an extra permanent listener.

-    document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', setupPageNavigationListeners);
+    document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', setupPageNavigationListeners, { once: true });

31-59: Harden callback execution: swallow async rejections with logging.

void callback() can surface unhandled promise rejections. Wrap to catch sync/async errors and log via debugTurbolinks.

You can implement this outside this hunk:

function invokeCallback(cb: PageLifecycleCallback, phase: 'load' | 'unload') {
  try {
    const p = cb();
    if (p && typeof (p as Promise<void>).then === 'function') {
      (p as Promise<void>).catch((e) => debugTurbolinks(`page ${phase} callback error:`, e));
    }
  } catch (e) {
    debugTurbolinks(`page ${phase} callback error:`, e);
  }
}

// Then inside runPageLoadedCallbacks/runPageUnloadedCallbacks:
function runPageLoadedCallbacks(): void {
  currentPageState = 'load';
  pageLoadedCallbacks.forEach((cb) => invokeCallback(cb, 'load'));
}

function runPageUnloadedCallbacks(): void {
  currentPageState = 'unload';
  pageUnloadedCallbacks.forEach((cb) => invokeCallback(cb, 'unload'));
}

21-27: Add a one-liner to run the new Quick Start example

Make it easy to discover how to boot spec/quick-start from here.

 ### Development Setup Commands
@@
 - **Run single test example**: `rake run_rspec:example_basic`
+ - **Run Quick Start app**:
+   - `cd spec/quick-start && bundle install && npm install && ./bin/dev`

69-72: Explicitly call out the new example location

Readers scanning “Examples and Testing” won’t know about spec/quick-start unless mentioned.

 - **Examples**: Generated via rake tasks for different webpack configurations
+ - **Examples**: Generated via rake tasks for different webpack configurations
+ - **Quick Start example app**: `spec/quick-start` (Rails 7.2 + React 19 + Shakapacker 8)

81-88: Exclude Quick Start folders from the IDE to avoid churn

Large node_modules/tmp/log in spec/quick-start can slow indexing.

 - `/node_modules`, `/spec/dummy/node_modules`, `/spec/dummy/tmp`
 - `/spec/dummy/app/assets/webpack`, `/spec/dummy/log`
+ - `/spec/quick-start/node_modules`, `/spec/quick-start/tmp`, `/spec/quick-start/log`

1-88: Sanity-check Claude permissions file in this PR

A separate file (.claude/settings.local.json) allows powerful commands (e.g., git push). Ensure this is intended to be committed and scoped only to local/dev.

Would you like me to open a follow-up to gate these commands behind an “ask” workflow or document their intended usage?

33-38: Good short-circuit to avoid touching Turbolinks when absent.

turbolinksInstalled() && turbolinksSupported() ensures turbolinksSupported() is never called unless Turbolinks exists, preventing TypeErrors.


43-47: Turbo listeners + immediate initial fire look correct.

Attaches turbo:before-render/turbo:render and triggers initial runPageLoadedCallbacks() so first paint is handled.


49-54: Turbolinks 5 path is safe and consistent.

Guarded by the earlier install/supported check and mirrors Turbo behavior by immediately running loaded callbacks.


61-69: Init guard is correct.

Single-install pattern prevents duplicate listeners across multiple API calls.

CHANGELOG.md (1)

26-47: Good consolidation for 15.0.0 and updated anchors

Release structuring and bottom compare links look correct.

- The package is ESM-only now. Migration:
- If using `require('react-on-rails')`, upgrade to Node v20.19.0+ or change to `import`.
- For TypeScript errors, upgrade to TypeScript 5.8+ and set `module` to `nodenext`.
- `ReactOnRails.reactOnRailsPageLoaded` is now an async function. Migration:
- Add `await` when calling this function: `await ReactOnRails.reactOnRailsPageLoaded()`.
- `force_load` configuration now defaults to `true`. Migration:
- Set `force_load: false` in your config if you want the previous behavior.

Align Node version in CHANGELOG with package.json engines

CHANGELOG.md specifies Node v20.19.0+ but package.json has no engines field; either add

"engines": { "node": ">=20.19.0" }

to package.json or update the CHANGELOG to “Node v20+” to match CI. TypeScript’s devDependency (^5.8.3) already satisfies TS 5.8+.

In CHANGELOG.md around lines 38 to 44, the Node version callout (Node v20.19.0+)

Align package manager guidance with the new Quick Start (uses npm)

The Quick Start app in this PR uses npm (bundle install && npm install; ./bin/dev), while this section instructs yarn. This can confuse contributors switching between root/dummy and spec/quick-start.

Apply this diff to clarify both and point readers to per-app instructions:

- - **Install dependencies**: `bundle && yarn`
+ - **Install dependencies**:
+   - Root/dev (historical repos and dummy): `bundle && yarn`

⚠️ Potential issue

Initial page-load callbacks never run for Turbolinks 2.

Unlike the Turbo/TL5 paths, TL2 doesn’t call runPageLoadedCallbacks() on initial load, so subscribers won’t run until the first page:change. Add an immediate call for parity.

Apply this diff:

3-21: Move risky commands out of “allow”; narrow broad globs.

Unattended VCS and generator commands in “allow” are high-risk (git push/commit/checkout/init, rails new, rails:* and yarn run:). Keep a tight allowlist; route risky ops to “ask”; add explicit denies for destructive variants. Also remove the blanket "Bash(yarn run:)" which bypasses the more specific lint/prettier entries.

Apply:

   "permissions": {
     "allow": [
-      "Bash(find:*)",
-      "Bash(git add:*)",
-      "Bash(git push:*)",

1-25: Don’t commit local agent settings; provide an example and gitignore the real file.

1-236: Do not commit generated Webpack runtime; remove and ignore packs outputs

This is bundled output from Shakapacker/Webpack. It will churn, trigger false-positive lints, and bloat the repo. Mirror our existing policy of not committing generated artifacts (see prior learnings for node_package/lib). Remove this file and ignore the entire packs dir for the example app.

Apply:

+# .gitignore (repo root)
+public/packs/
+spec/quick-start/public/packs/

Then delete committed artifacts:

-// spec/quick-start/public/packs/js/runtime.js
-// (remove file; ideally remove the whole spec/quick-start/public/packs/ directory)

If using Biome, exclude generated assets:

+// biome.json
+{

Ensure CI/dev workflows compile assets instead of relying on checked-in bundles

After removing packs, verify scripts run a compile step for the quick-start app (e.g., bin/rails shakapacker:compile or ./bin/dev).

You can validate with:


🏁 Script executed:

#!/bin/bash
set -euo pipefail
# Confirm packs are not tracked
git ls-files 'spec/quick-start/public/packs/*' && { echo "Tracked packs found"; exit 1; } || echo "OK: no tracked packs"
# Confirm ignore rules are present

Remove checked-in bundles, update ignore rules, and enforce asset compilation

  • Untrack all files under spec/quick-start/public/packs (e.g. git rm --cached -r spec/quick-start/public/packs) and commit.
  • Add spec/quick-start/public/packs/ (and public/packs/ if used) to .gitignore.
  • Ensure your dev/CI workflows invoke the compile step (e.g. bin/rails shakapacker:compile or ./bin/dev) before serving the quick-start app; verify that no bundles are served from source control.

This directory will contain test applications for validating React on Rails documentation and setup instructions.
🚨 BREAKING: Fixed installation sequence that was causing errors

**Root Cause Found:**
- React on Rails generator requires package.json to exist
- Rails 8 with --skip-javascript doesn't create package.json
- Previous instructions tried React on Rails first → package.json error

**Fix Applied:**
1. ✅ Always install Shakapacker FIRST (creates package.json)
2. ✅ Then install React on Rails (can add JS dependencies)

**Updated All 3 Scenarios:**
- New Rails App: Shakapacker → React on Rails
- Existing Rails App: Shakapacker → React on Rails
- Vite Migration: Remove Vite → Shakapacker → React on Rails

**Validated:**
- Created test app following new instructions → SUCCESS
- React component renders, HMR works, no errors
- Updated to current gem versions (15.0, 8.3)

This fix prevents the "package.json not found" error that breaks setup.

echo "Total docs: $doc_count"
fd -t f docs -exec wc -l {} + | sort -rn | head -n 10

-- Rails 7+ (Rails 8 supported), Ruby 3.0+ (Ruby 3.2+ for Rails 8), Node 20+ LTS, Yarn
+- Rails 7+ (Rails 8 supported), Ruby 3.0+ (Ruby 3.2+ for Rails 8), Node 18+ (20 LTS recommended), Yarn

231-231: Optional: Add a quick SSR tip.

Since SSR is mentioned elsewhere, a one-liner improves discoverability.

-*💡 **Pro Tip for AI Agents**: Always run `bin/dev` to test setup, and check browser console for any JavaScript errors.*
+*💡 Pro Tip:* Always run `bin/dev` and check the browser console for JS errors. For SSR tests, try `<%= react_component("HelloWorld", props: {}, prerender: true) %>`.

This prevents accidentally committing generated/demo apps and aligns with existing ignore patterns in this repo.

286-288: LGTM on the guiding principle

Clear, actionable north star for all edits.

AI_AGENT_INSTRUCTIONS.md (3)

177-203: Validate troubleshooting commands (bin/shakapacker, assets:clobber).

Ensure these commands exist in the generated app; some setups expose different bin names, and assets:clobber may be unnecessary if Sprockets isn’t used.

If needed, suggest alternatives:

  • Use bin/webpack or bin/webpack-dev-server if bin/shakapacker is absent.
  • Prefer rm -rf public/packs tmp/cache && bin/dev over assets:clobber in non-Sprockets apps.

20-28: Great emphasis on install order; keep this section.

Clear reasoning and concise bullets reduce common setup failures.


156-158: Confirmed Shakapacker 8.3 uses javascript_pack_tag and stylesheet_pack_tag (no _packs_with_chunks_tag variants). Replace vite_javascript_tag with javascript_pack_tag and vite_stylesheet_tag with stylesheet_pack_tag as shown.

🛠️ Refactor suggestion

Include npm/yarn install before starting dev servers.

Generators add JS deps; without install, bin/dev often fails on a clean machine.

sequence to run the JS package install after running shakapacker and

(or npm install/pnpm install depending on project) right after the generators
complete so node_modules are present before starting the dev servers.

Always run Shakapacker install; don’t gate it solely on package.json.

Having package.json doesn’t guarantee Shakapacker configs/scripts were installed.

-# Check if package.json exists, create if missing
-if [ ! -f "package.json" ]; then
-  bundle exec rails shakapacker:install
-fi
+# Ensure Shakapacker is fully installed (idempotent)
+bundle exec rails shakapacker:install

In AI_AGENT_INSTRUCTIONS.md around lines 77–85, the script currently only runs
`bundle exec rails shakapacker:install` when package.json is missing, which can
skip installing Shakapacker artifacts even if package.json exists; remove the
conditional and invoke the shakapacker install unconditionally (or replace the
if-check with a more robust idempotent verification) so the install command
always runs after adding the gem, ensuring Shakapacker configs/scripts are
created or refreshed.

Verify generator flag support (--ignore-existing-files).

I’m not sure this flag exists for react_on_rails:install. If unsupported, the command will fail.

Run a quick check or update to a supported flag, e.g., remove it if unnecessary:

-rails generate react_on_rails:install --ignore-existing-files
+rails generate react_on_rails:install

🌐 Web query:

What are the supported options for `rails generate react_on_rails:install` in React on Rails 15.x?

💡 Result:

Supported generator options (rails generate react_on_rails:install) in React on Rails 15.x:

  • --redux / --no-redux (alias -R) — install Redux example and related gems. [1][2]
  • --server-rendering / --no-server-rendering (alias -S) — add server‑side rendering files/config. [2]
  • --skip-js-linters / --no-skip-js-linters (alias -j) — skip installing JS linting files. [2]
  • --ruby-linters / --no-ruby-linters (alias -L) — install Ruby linting files/tasks/configs. [2]
  • --heroku-deployment / --no-heroku-deployment (alias -H) — add files for Heroku deployment. [2]
  • --skip-bootstrap / --no-skip-bootstrap (alias -b) — skip Bootstrap integration. [2]
  • --ignore-warnings / --no-ignore-warnings — skip generator warnings. [1]
  • Common runtime flags: --force (-f), --pretend (-p), --quiet (-q), --skip (-s). [1][2]

Drop unsupported --ignore-existing-files flag
The react_on_rails:install generator in React on Rails 15.x does not support --ignore-existing-files (use --ignore-warnings to suppress warnings). Update to:

-rails generate react_on_rails:install --ignore-existing-files
+rails generate react_on_rails:install

🛠️ Refactor suggestion

Fix find(1) OR precedence and restrict to files; standardize package install.

The find expression needs grouping; otherwise matches can be inconsistent. Also, prefer npm (or explicitly note yarn alternative) for consistency with the rest of the doc.

-find app/frontend -name "*.jsx" -o -name "*.tsx" | while read file; do
+find app/frontend \( -name "*.jsx" -o -name "*.tsx" \) -type f | while read file; do
     basename=$(basename "$file")
     cp "$file" "app/javascript/bundles/Components/$basename"
 done

🤖 Prompt for AI Agents
In AI_AGENT_INSTRUCTIONS.md around lines 111 to 164 the find command used to
copy JSX/TSX components lacks grouped OR precedence and doesn't restrict results
to files, which can yield unexpected matches; update the find invocation to
group the name tests and add -type f (e.g. use find app/frontend \( -name
"*.jsx" -o -name "*.tsx" \) -type f ...) and standardize the package manager
step by replacing the loose "yarn install" instruction with a single explicit
command (prefer npm install, or state "npm install (or yarn install if you
prefer)") so the doc is consistent.
