The Ext Scaffold Generator Plugin can be viewed as a drop-in replacement for Rails’ standard Resource Generator. Accepting the very same options, it will generate views using data grid and form components from the Ext JS Javascript GUI framework as well as a controller acting as an Ext-compatible JSON web service. The generated code can be used as a starting point for further implementation and outlines solutions on how to integrate the Ext JS library with Rails as a backend. The Ext JS framework got a lot of attention lately as it offers very sophisticated GUI components for web application development. Ext JS is huge. It provides just about any component for developing Rich Internet Applications.
