A Bundler-to-Bower proxy that converts Bower frontend packages into Ruby gems for use in Rails asset pipelines. It also provides a hosted service at rails-assets.org.
Use cases
- manage frontend assets in Rails via Bundler
- convert Bower packages into Ruby gems
- include jQuery and other JS libraries in Rails asset pipeline
- pin frontend library versions in Gemfile
When to choose
- maintaining a legacy Rails app already using rails-assets
- you still depend on Bower packages in an older Rails codebase
When to avoid
- starting a new Rails project (Bower is deprecated)
- modern Rails 7+ apps with import maps or JS bundlers
- projects not using Ruby or Rails
