Demonstrates Flex, a Ruby-first HTML renderer that defines a renderable class inheriting from Flex::HTML::Base with Ruby methods for every tag and keyword args for attributes, showing concrete code: extracting partials into methods, building a column-oriented table DSL, and a form object that both renders fields and infers permitted params. Claims measured gains: simpler, more maintainable templates and Flex is just Ruby with renderable class with methods for every HTML tag and form object that renders itself and infers permitted params. Docs at flex.fun; author notes it is fast and practical.
