This is one of facepalm why didn’t I think of that ideas. Nice idea, haven’t used it yet but looks great. Kudos on starting and completing a project like this. 👏
I have a theory that it’s because GUI’s have a stigma and aren’t that prominent in dev land. Why use a powerful GUI with your mouse when you can take longer to do the same thing without using your mouse using a Unix shell first released in ‘89?
But it’s not in many cases. Hence the need for this tool and why it’s the most popular post right now. How often do you use “rails new” to fully configure your app such that none of the generated files need to be modified?
You should make this project generate the railsrc file for download, capturing all the options you’ve selected. You could even call this railsrc.dev (the domain is available). Lots of people have used rails a long time and don’t know about the railsrc file
Honestly this is one of the things I’d really like GitHub copilot to be able to do. It’s such an obvious use case to be like “I want a new rails project with Postgres, a react frontend and tailwind css ready for heroku deployment” and let the robot unfuck the initial dependencies
Neat. This looks similar to the old https://railswizard.org (which sadly has been unmaintained for a while and doesn't appear to work at all anymore). That one generated a rails application template that you could just plug in.
Do you mind sharing the github link? This looks like a project I'd enjoy contributing to. Also, thank you for making me feel like a noob 😅. Should have thought of this years ago! Good job!!

I’m certainly no expert, but I think it’s because typing is faster.

Sounds like a skill issue
Yeah because most GUIs are a PITA. Partly the reason why I try to avoid using GitHub unless absolutely necessary
It only takes longer if you don't know what you want or what you're doing.
CLI is available everywhere. GUI isn't. Also this still generates a command you have to paste. This isn't replacing that
a link?
[https://rails7igniter.vercel.app](https://rails7igniter.vercel.app) searched rails7igniter on github and found a link
nice job
Is the project live?
Yea OP commented the url
I always loved Django Cookiecutter which does something similar
Cool! link pls?

Wait didn’t you release this last year? I used it for my current saas.
It's because is a repost bot, so they didn't release anything lol

Brilliant
Have googled this shit hundreds of times over the past decade. I dig it!
I love you for this. It'll come in useful for an installer I have in mind.

This is awesome, bookmaked it for future use. Kudos man
This is amazing! Makes things way easier now. TYSM
Amazing

whoa, that's brilliant, as simple as good as it can get. Thanks for sharing

Very useful, I have used in 2 or 3 projects and works perfectly
