react-on-rails
Integration of React + Webpack + Rails including server-side rendering of React, enabling a better developer experience and faster client performance.
Compared to gems like React on Rails or Intertia Rails, the current gem is just an installer and does virtually nothing to modify or add features to React Router. This is a great advantage and ensures that frontend developers will feel right at home.

I see a lot of comments here asking about practical motivations for this feature. One I'll share is that in a gem I help maintain, we benchmark git branches of the gem against `main`, and we also benchmark against multiple other gems that sometimes have namespace collisions with each other. To make this work, we use a third-party gem[0] and an anonymous module trick[1] that are each a bit hacky.
That being said, I have no particular stance on whether this feature is a good change to the language; in a decade of Ruby this is the only situation I can recall that really merited it, and the concerns articulated by byroot and others do resonate with me.
