No, my current job is a $ rails new --api backend with graphql and react—it’s a bit of a Rube Goldberg machine since no one is actually consuming our graphql api other than us. I really hate working in this stack but, to be fair, it’s because I’m working on and app that doesn’t actually need it (but that’s the way it seems to go in our industry… someone knows React so they start every project with it, no matter how simple it is). I still find the nuances of LiveView simpler to understand than those of React and it’s just simpler overall. I dream of finding work that is all just in Phoenix.
Also, I do think Alpine is great! Just the one hobby project I worked on where I brought it in I found it provided so little value over just doing it as a hook, but I’d definitely look at it again for other projects.
