What took 1.5 months to build in React JS code took 1.5 days in Glimmer DSL for Web Ruby code

When I reimplemented a React component as the first Glimmer DSL for Web Component in my job's Fintech Rails web app, I thought I did what would have taken 1 week in React in 1.5 days in Glimmer, which seemed like a great improvement in productivity at the time (333.33% the productivity if we count 1 week of React as 5 business days). I recently inspected the Git timeline of the original React component, and discovered that it actually took 1.5 months to develop initially!!! That's compared to 1.5 days to develop in Glimmer DSL for Web! CAN YOU BELIEVE IT!!!?!!! Glimmer's productivity benefits over React are turning out to be bigger than what I initially expected!!! 

If you haven't started exploring the innovations of Frontend Ruby in your Rails Frontend Development stack, you're missing out big time while losing a huge competitive advantage to devs who are exploring those innovations. There is a huge gap in productivity between devs who write their Frontends 2016-style in JavaScript (e.g. React) and those who have moved on to greener pastures like Frontend Ruby, which provides exponential productivity improvements. Thousands of Ruby on Rails devs are wasting their time by using React.js in 2026 when Glimmer DSL for Web provides exponential productivity improvements. You owe it to yourself to put in the time to learn Glimmer DSL for Web, which is honestly highly interesting, intriguing, and exciting to learn for anyone who fancy themselves as Rubyists. No wonder it won an award by Matz, the creator of the Ruby programming language, at the Fukuoka Prefecture Future IT Initiative 2025 international tech competition in Japan.

I can help Ruby on Rails devs figure out how to solve any React.js Frontend problem in much simpler Ruby code using Glimmer DSL for Web. Just hit me up at the Glimmer Gitter chat:

If you are skeptical about Glimmer DSL for Web being simpler than React.js, contact me and let me show you a better and simpler way in Frontend Ruby. Code doesn't lie! Glimmer components are often 1/2 or even 1/10 the size of React components. Everyone knows that Ruby code is simpler, more readable, and more expressive than JavaScript code. And, the benefits compound when tackling Frontend Development problems with the superiority of the Ruby programming language.  

Also, I am able to have AI generate 100% working Glimmer Web Components automatically, let alone AI consumes less credits when generating Ruby code compared to other languages. So, Glimmer DSL for Web is definitely a great choice in the AI age too!

The easiest way to get started with Glimmer DSL for Web is to jump into the exercises of my recent wroclove.rb 2026 Ruby conference workshop "Building Rails SPAs in Frontend Ruby with Glimmer DSL for Web".
