barefoot_js

Ruby runtime for BarefootJS marked templates, targeting ERB.

BarefootJS is a fine-grained reactive TSX compiler: you write components in TSX, and the compiler emits templates for your backend's template engine plus the client-side JS that hydrates them. This gem is the server half for Ruby — it renders the .erb templates produced by the @barefootjs/erb adapter.

Installation

gem install barefoot_js

Usage

Every compiled .erb template receives a BarefootJS::Context as the bf local. The context is engine-agnostic; everything that depends on how a template is rendered is delegated to a pluggable backend (BarefootJS::Backend::Erb is the ERB reference implementation):

require 'barefoot_js'

bf = BarefootJS::Context.new(backend)

Values are JSON-shaped Ruby data with symbol hash keys throughout (props, env hashes, array-of-hash records).
