How to Build A Billion Dollar App alternatives

For the last 5 years, active_admin and administrate have been the 2 default admin "frameworks" that were present in most commercial projects that I worked with. They felt legacy since day 1 of implementing them, but there was nothing better (faster, cheaper) on the market. I had the (horrible) experience building complex UIs with active_admin, adding Hotwire to it... 😭 Well, now AVO is my default go-to admin in Rails. It has a nice UI, no technical debt and does not use any legacy technology (looking at you jQuery). So yeah, I've come here to say thanks to Adrian and the dev team! ;)

Like many people, I also feel the project is outdated. The issue is not specific to this project, a lot of projects is also in the same case. This is why I build Nextless.js with similar stack but using the latest technologies and actively maintained.
