Rails 7.0 Alpha 1: New JavaScript Answers, At-Work Encryption, Query Origin Logging, Zeitwerk Exclusively | Riding Rails

Welcome to the first alpha release of Rails 7. It brings some very exciting new answers to how we do JavaScript, an awesome approach to at-work encryption with Active Record, SQL query origin logging, asynchronous query loading, exclusive autoloading through Zeitwerk, and much more.We usually don’t do alpha releases for Rails, but given the fact that the new front-end approach is such a substantial change, we thought it best to validate that a little further before jumping straight on the beta -> release candidate -> final train.Please help us test all this new stuff so we can ensure a solid final release of Rails 7 this year!.
