Seems like a more exciting Rails release than I can remember in several years. Curious about the benefits of Propshaft vs Sprockets, and how significant the improvements around SQLite in production really are.

I think the only benefit is that it does less, so less code, less maintainance or things going wrong? But Sprockets is certainly battle tested and maybe better choice for many right now.

A bit late to the comment party but just wanted to say that I just upgraded from 7.2 to 8 and it was a complete walk in the park. Easiest major dependency upgrade in a long time.

Also finally upgraded from Sprockets to Propshaft and Importmaps this afternoon and it was very straightforward as well. Truly amazing.
