Today is a big day for Herb! It's built into Rails 8.2 by default for all HTML+ERB views. My talk at #RailsWorld in Austin today answered three questions: What is Herb? What ships in Rails 8.2? And what does this enable? Herb v0.11 and ReActionView v0.6 released alongside it.

Been prototyping a new "Extract to Partial" Code Action for the Herb Language Server 🌿 Since it knows which variables your selected text uses, it can create the partial, define strict locals, rewrite all references, and replace the selected code with the proper render call ✨

I don't mind reading code written by agents, but I hate reading their PR descriptions. If I can't make myself read a PR description from Claude, I won't expect others to. Now when delivering PRs, I may not have written the code by hand, but I'll certainly write the description.
