This week we saw updates to Bourbon, Shoulda Context, and PropsTemplate. We also saw the release of a new tool, Form Props!

Form Props

Johny Ho (jho406) released a new tool, Form Props! 🎉

It’s a Rails form builder that outputs input attributes (in JSON) instead of tags. Now you can enjoy the conviences of Rails helpers in other view libraries like React and React Native.

Bourbon

Bourbon is a library of Sass mixins and functions that are designed to make you a more efficient style sheet author.

Sarah Lima (sarahraqueld) fixed a broken logo (71d4776).

Shoulda Context

Shoulda Context makes it easy to write understandable and maintainable tests under Minitest and Test::Unit within Rails projects or plain Ruby projects.

Pedro Paiva (VSPPedro) removed support for Rails 5.2 (7fdc814).

PropsTemplate

PropsTemplate is a direct-to-Oj, JBuilder-like DSL for building JSON. It has support for Russian-Doll caching, layouts, and can be queried by giving the root a key path.

Johny Ho (jho406) bumped the version to 0.25.0 (27fdb18).
