rails 7 template starter to edit

Bento 🍱

A deliciously modern vanilla Rails stack for your next big idea.

What is Bento?

Bento is a modern and vanilla Rails 7 stack which adheres to the Rails doctrine as much as possible. It's a starter template for building wonderful software products with Rails.

I created this template so you can hit the ground running and focus on your project without wasting time on boilerplate code.

What's in the box?

Bento is designed to be lean and healthy with all the essentials for a productive and enjoyable development/testing workflow.

It provides a few staples:

• All the major Rails 7 defaults (except for Test Unit in favour of Rspec)
• Modern JavaScript bundled with ES Build via the JS Bundling gem
• Modern CSS powered by Dart Sass and the CSS Bundling gems
• Hotwire Stack (Turbo & Stimulus) for SPA-like JavaScript sprinkles without the SPA complexity.
• Jest for easy JavaScript testing. See app/javascript/controllers for an example
• Sidekiq for background jobs
• Rspec for unit and system tests along with simplecov for coverage support
• Capybara with headless Selenium integration tests and a pre-configured CircleCI config ready to go. See spec/system for an example.
