Hey there Andy,

The README here currently has this instruction:

Install a Rails 5 gem:

gem install rails -v5.2.6

If you look at https://rubygems.org/gems/rails/ then it lists rails version
7.0.0, as well as version 6.1.4.4 (released on December 15, 2021).

If you have some time in the future when looking at glimmer-dsl-opal,
could you perhaps mention whether the other two rails versions may
also work? Just so people can see whether they have to potentially
downgraded rails or e. g. mentioning this in the README whether
other rails version are supported by glimmer-dsl-opal.

That was my original use case (for the issue request) as well, since I had some
problems getting opal to work, so I thought I could try the glimmer-dsl-opal
instructions perhaps, then this may work. :)

Thank you for reading this issue request.

Hi @AndyObtiva

I think the whole idea is very cool, especially the BOOM.

However, the readme says we should install rails as a prerequisite, Can I use it without rails?

Is it possible to use it as the front-end tech only?

Hello Andy,

You already added an example with rails for the tetris example.

I am wondering how to add tetris to sinatra (I actually use sinatra more than rails).

I could then e. g. add a route /tetris and offer the tetris variant via sinatra. :D

So the TL;DR request: could you, if time permits, also add a minimal example
on the README that shows how to use this via sinatra? (Here we can assume
the user already installed all of glimmer including glimmer-dsl-opal and probably
opal as well, so only a standalone example may be needed; perhaps even
a standalone .rb file or something, or just a route-added example - either way
is fine).
