Let's Standardize Rails, Once and For All! by Justin Searls, Meagan Waller
Four years ago, I arbitrarily configured every RuboCop rule and published it as a gem called "standard". 135 releases later, feedback from the community has gradually transformed Standard into a linter & formatter ruleset that most Rubyists can get behind. Today, Standard is delivering on its promise: helping teams stay focused on their work instead of arguing over syntax. The time has come to once again configure the unconfigurable by creating a standard-rails based on rubocop-rails. But this time, we'll skip the years of debating rules on GitHub. Instead, we're holding a community straw poll at RailsConf!
