Is anyone using Rails 6 on a live project yet? Or considering moving to 6?
Just starting a new project and am not persuaded to move over to 6. Just wondered what others are thinking.

Ian bradburyNov 15, 2019My main concerns revolve around the webpack integration and the difficulty in getting that right. And you know, being a new version there will be effort to get comfortable to the changes. No other concerns really.

Interesting 🤔
- regarding webpack integration
by getting that right, do you mean in a specific configuration?
If want to use react or something you could create your app like this and it works really well:
rails new myapp --webpack=react --skip-sprocketsAll your js is going to be on
app/javascript/Also, if your app gets too large in the future, you could move the front-end to a different repo quite easily
- being a new version Rails is quite madure, there aren't much breaking changes, and hopefully you will probably continue to work as always.
Do you have any specific change in mind?
I know that there are companies using Rails 6 since its first release candidate. Now that the version 6.0.1 is released, I'd have no concerns on starting a project where you don't have much time to debug using Rails 6.0.1.
Could you elaborate a bit more in your concerns please? =)
