There are times when code needs to be shipped in a compiled state.

It's an excellent use case for production Docker images and code deploy pipelines.

No more page refreshing with CBWIRE and Turbo Drive

Turbo Drive can significantly enhance the user experience of your server-side apps by removing unnecessary page refreshes, and it doesn't take much to implement. Once Turbo Drive is installed, link clicks and form submissions will happen in the background via AJAX. You can use Turbo Drive with or without CBWIRE. If you are using CBWIRE, you can now use a plugin to make CBWIRE and Turbo Drive play together nicely.
