In this course, you will learn to build a fully-functional application with Rails Webpacker, Webpack, and TypeScript.

To kick things off, you’ll walk through the basics of getting Rails set up to use Webpacker which will serve JavaScript and CSS to the browser. You’ll then get acquainted with Stimulus and React which will help with creating richer interactions.

In the latter half, you’ll work with TypeScript and set up communication between a server. Beyond that, you’ll work through managing state in your Stimulus code, as well as how to test and troubleshoot your application.

By the end of this course, you will be well equipped to create larger, more complex applications that make use of modern tools.

Modern Front-end Development for Rails

JavaScript typically runs in a browser environment.

JavaScript interacts closely with the DOM.

Why is testing JavaScript difficult?

It's more robust than Capybara when waiting for actions to complete.

We write Cypress code in RSpec and can run it as part of a normal Rails testing process, which means that it integrates better with Rails.

Cypress allows you to interact with a simulated browser.

What is an advantage of Cypress over Capybara?

What is an advantage of Cypress over Capybara?

The Stimulus team is explicit that end-to-end server testing is the preferred way of testing Stimulus behavior.

Testing Stimulus controllers or React components in isolation from a server is complicated.

Why is end-to-end testing preferred in Stimulus?

Why is end-to-end testing preferred in Stimulus?

It recursively visits all the pages of the website starting from the root, `/`.

What does `cy.visit("/")` do in our application?

What does <code>cy.visit(&quot;/&quot;)</code> do in our application?

Regular variable assignment is going to cause you trouble.

Each successive `cy` command only executes after the previous one has completed.
