React + Rails + Webpack and React-Refetch

Overview and Goals

React_On_Rails is an awesome library that integrates React + Rails + Webpack, with boilerplate to quickly get you up and running on a new project. React-Refetch is also another great library that makes reading and writing data to the server in React seamless. My goal here is to develop an architecture leveraging these two libraries that accomplishes three goals:

  1. Simple
  2. Easy to maintain
  3. Scalable

To accomplish this, our architecture will leverage React-Refetch and Rails routing to expose each component to the data needed on each given page, using our server data as the single source of truth, therefore minimizing or, idealy, completely removing our use of state to modify data on many pages. This reduces the fragile nature of offloading a batch of data to one large root component and dispersing it among nested sub-components. This also allows us to always have a 1-to-1 relationship betwee
