Hi guys,
I'd recommend looking at Cells [1] and thinking if we can use it to implement the
portlets. It's a components/portlets implementation for Rails, has more than 1200
stars on GitHub [2], so I guess it's the Rails "standard" for doing these
things (although I admit I never used component based approach for views in Rails). It
might prevent us from reinventing the wheel and also keep the project community-friendly,
as I think it's always better to go with "standard implementations", so that
community contributors are not forced to learn Aeolus-specific solutions to standard
problems.
That said, I didn't look into this in detail, so I'm not sure whether Cells would
fit for our use case. Just want to bring it up to your attention.
Have a nice day
J.
