Hyperstack

This is the edge branch - the system is stable, and there are approx 1000 test specs passig. For current status on development see current status.

Hyperstack is a Ruby-based DSL and modern web toolkit for building spectacular, interactive web applications fast!

• One language throughout the client and server. All Ruby code is compiled by Opal into JavaScript automatically.
• Webpacker and Yarn tooling for a modern, fast hot-reloader build environment with Ruby source maps.
• A well documented and stable Ruby DSL for wrapping React and ReactRouter as well as any JavaScript library or component. No need to learn JavaScript!
• Isomorphic Models with bi-directional data so you can access your models as if they were on the client.

All that means you can write simple front-end code like this:

class GoodBooksToRead < HyperComponent
  render(UL) do
    Book.good_books.each do |book|
      LI { "Read #{book.name}" }.on(:click) { display book } if book.available?
    end
  end
end

In the code above, if the good_books scope changed (even on the server), the UI would update automatically. That's the magic of React and Isomorphic Models with bi-directional data at work!

History

Hyperstack is an evolution of Ruby-Hyperloop. We decided to rename the project to drop the Ruby suffix and also took the opportunity to simplify the repos and project overall.
