10 years ago today a ruby gem named Primer was created, which later became a CSS framework, and continued to expand into Primer design system including Rails and React components. Design Systems are never done right? Happy Birthday Primer!🥳

Primer started as a gem file of useful CSS & assets, later became a CSS framework, a React component library, and over the last year or so, components for Rails. Full circle, you now install Primer as a gem again! Interested in working on this? Apply here boards.greenhouse.io/github/…

We’re experimenting with introducing CSS encapsulation to Rails (with View Components). What parts of CSS Modules, and Styled Components or Emotion etc. would you want to take with you to another framework?
