I've used Vue w/ Rails so far and it's been pretty good. The one real complaint is that I really wish is that I could use Vue components (.vue files) in a better integrated way with the Rails asset pipeline.

react-rails does this really well, making JSX transformation a drop-in gem, vs. having to set up some kind of front end task runner of sorts and constantly having to commit compiled files and such.

Beyond that, Vue has been amazing, and I really love it.

SEEKING WORK -- SF / Remote

I am a designer/developer running an independent consultancy in SF. I do data viz and web consulting (mostly Rails, but the tools do not define the craftsman) for a number of clients -- typically small to mid sized businesses. Still updating my portfolio but you can see a few projects on there right now.

I have a background in full stack development and have quite a bit of UX experience as well. I can build your product end-to-end. Happy to augment your team or work independently -- check out my portfolio for more info.

I've been freelancing for over 2 years now and I use Freshbooks (http://www.freshbooks.com/) for all my time tracking / invoicing. It also can accept payments via Stripe, as well as connect to my business credit card to automatically pull in expenses, so most of my accounting stuff gets very easy to handle -- I barely log in to it for any management, I just use ChronoMate (http://chronomateapp.com/) to track my time, and it auto-generates weekly invoices to send to my clients. Couldn't recommend it enough!

What's your plan instead?
