This Ruby on Rails 7 tutorial quickly covers setting up a stimulus component for polling the backend to get the latest data. Very pog stuff. I'm really tired, does anyone even read these descriptions lol

While it's not going to be as popular as ChatGPT, it's still pretty useful! This one will let you request data from the backend in a loop, so that every N seconds you get the stuff you need.
Not always necessary, but sometimes it is, and it's nice to consider it a solved problem. :)

I am neither criticizing the video nor the stimulus-component library, but at the end of the day, all that component does internally is use setInterval in the connect, and make sure to remove it in the disconnect callback. There are other small features, but this could easily have been created without an import.

Thanks.
This functionality can be used to update the weather widget, stock quotes, exchange rates and other data that we can't control, but this data should always be up to date.
