slim-rails provides Slim generators for Rails 3+. It was based on haml-rails and it does basically the same:
- Any time you generate a controller or scaffold, you'll get Slim templates (instead of ERB)
- When your Rails application loads, Slim will be loaded and initialized automatically
- Slim templates will be respected by the view template cache digestor
To use it, add this line to your Gemfile:
gem "slim-rails"
And that's it.
If you have existing .erb
templates, check out our guide on how to achieve this.
From the version 0.2.0, there is no need to include gem "slim" in your Gemfile.
Every time you generate a controller or scaffold, you'll get Slim templates.
