Hold out for just a bit longer as I have. The pendulum is definitely swinging back the other way with regards to front-end development. Rails has some interesting things in the works with StimuluxReflex. Basically a SSR SPA. It's a bit like the original promise of progressive enhancement before javascript ate the world. ie. everything is server-side, then "enlivened" after with JS. So if/when JS fails, you still have a working website.

Personally I prefer LiveView from the Phoenix(Elixir) framework. But my day job still uses Rails.

There are similar projects in Django and PHP (Laravel, I think)
