Dart On Rails
summary
A Rails-like blog is implemented in Dart: working login, registration, session cookie auth and post creation all demoed live. It uses Prisma-generated client for models (requires npx prisma generate + build_runner), Jinja templates (Ginger) for views, and shelf + shelf_router + shelf_static for routing and assets; middleware injects authenticated user into requests and redirects unauthenticated access. Code is opinionated like Rails, the demo runs successfully, and a native Handlebars compiler and auth library are planned.
