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.
