This blog is part of our Rails 6.1 series.
Rails 6.1 makes it easier to debug rendered HTML by adding the name of each template used.
Add the following line in development.rb
file to enable this feature.
config.action_view.annotate_rendered_view_with_filenames = true
Now the rendered HTML will contain comment indicating the beginning and end of each template.
Here is an example.
In the image we can see the begin
and end
for each of the templates. It
helps a lot in debugging webpages to find out which template is rendered. Check
out the pull request for more
details on this.
