Rails: https://github.com/hopsoft/stimulus_reflex
In Ask HN: Does your framework have a LiveView answer?Here are a few interesting pieces in Rails specifically:
- https://github.com/hopsoft/stimulus_reflex is inspired by Phoenix LiveView and is getting a bit of traction around me
- https://github.com/hopsoft/cable_ready is a companion project
- https://github.com/discourse/message_bus by Sam Saffron from Discourse is a nice way to implement live updates too, quite easily (video demo at https://twitter.com/thibaut_barrere/status/12565974431075860...)
- https://lamby.custominktech.com is a Rails + AWS Lambda integration which is also gaining a bit of traction
I also see interesting stuff in Ruby more generally these days:
- my own https://www.kiba-etl.org (data processing framework) is growing nicely
- https://sidekiq.org is very solid and used in most Rails app I've seen
- https://github.com/contribsys/faktory allows interop-jobs (e.g. creat
Read the rest
e from Ruby, consume from something else), which is also interesting
- https://github.com/oracle/truffleruby is making very good progress
Just a few cherry-picked links, but I definitely think there are some nice evolutions going on in the Ruby world (speaking as someone also using Elixir in production!).
I think for Rails the more accurate counter part would be [1]
Stimulus Reflex where it is actually modelled after Liveview.
But yes, I really hope ( especially the new Phoenix 1.5 ) HTML wins back some mindshare in dev.

In Second-Guessing the Modern WebThere is also Stimulus Reflex [1] which is like a Turbo Charged Turbolinks. The idea is from Elixir / Phoenix 's LiveView.
I think Laravel has something similar as well. These are the three big groups that are actively frighting the SPA trend.

In Ask HN: Fastest/easiest framework to build a web application in 2020?Stimulus Reflex is probably what you want.
https://github.com/hopsoft/stimulus_reflex
Lightweight, real-time updates using the same Rails views already built.
In A Failed SaaS PostmortemThere's a growing realization that you can completely side-step the need for Single-Page App frameworks like React using websockets and the morphdom library.
Projects like StimulusReflex (Rails) and LiveView (Phoenix) allow developers to build complex, reactive modern apps faster and easier by rejecting the need to even have client state.
