Hiccdown Development Notes

With an account, you can revise, criticize, and comment on ideas.Having explored three different ideas, I believe #302 – having regular helper methods to render Hiccdown structures – is the best.
The idea is not without its flaws, but having to qualify a method name by, say, calling it idea_form
instead of form
is still better than manually having to pass the view context around all the time and not being able to trivially access instance variables.
So I’ll stick with #302 for now, which is the status quo already.
I think the thing I’m really fighting here is Rails being object-oriented. Which I can’t do anything about.
Not sure the Rails team realizes how much OOP reduces the extensibility of Rails.
