 - **Live purely in Rubyland via the Glimmer GUI DSL**, completely oblivious to web browser technologies, thanks to [Opal](https://opalrb.com/).
 - **HTML is for creating documents not interactive applications**. As such, software engineers can avoid it and focus on creating web applications more productively with Glimmer DSL for Opal in pure Ruby instead (just like they do in desktop development) while content creators and web designers can be the ones responsible for creating HTML documents for web content purposes only as HTML was originally intended. That way, Glimmer web GUI is used and embedded in web pages when providing users with applications while the rest of the web pages are maintained by non-engineers as pure HTML. This achieves a correct separation of responsibilities and better productivity and maintainability.
-- **Approximate styles by developers via the Glimmer GUI DSL. Perfect styles by designers via pure CSS**. Developers can simply build GUI with approximate styling similar to desktop GUI and mockups without worrying about pixel-perfect aesthetics. Web designers can take styling further with pure CSS since every HTML element auto-generated by Glimmer DSL for Opal has a predictable ID and CSS class. This achieves a proper separation of responsibilities between developers and designers.

This achieves a proper separation of responsibilities between developers and designers.
 - **Web servers are used just like servers in traditional client/server architecture**, meaning they simply provide RMI services to enable centralizing some of the application logic and data in the cloud to make available everywhere and enable data-sharing with others.

+- **Forget Routers!** [Glimmer DSL for Opal](https://rubygems.org/gems/glimmer-dsl-opal) supports auto-routing of custom shells (windows), which are opened as separate tabs in a web browser with automatically generated routes and bookmarkable URLs.
+- **Images Are Local** Desktop apps typically display local images included in app files. When running a desktop app on the web, Glimmer DSL for Opal automatically copies application images to the assets directory and exposes them as download links. Desktop image Ruby code that uses `File.expand_path` or `File.join` automatically detects available image web URLs and matches them to corresponding desktop image paths behind the scenes, so desktop app images show up on the web without any extra effort! ([Hello, Table!](#hello-table-sample) and [Hello, Label!](#hello-label-sample) are good examples of that)

+### Rails 7
+
+Please follow the following steps to setup.
+
+Install a Rails 7 gem:
+
+```
+gem install rails -v7.0.1
+```
+
+Start a new Rails 7 app:
+
+```
+rails new glimmer_app_server
+```
+
+Add the following to `Gemfile`:
+
+```
+gem 'opal', '1.4.1'
+gem 'opal-rails', '2.0.2'
+gem 'opal-async', '~> 1.4.0'
+gem 'opal-jquery', '~> 0.4.6'

+gem 'glimmer-dsl-xml', '~> 1.3.1', require: false
+gem 'glimmer-dsl-css', '~> 1.2.1', require: false
+```
+
+Follow [opal-rails](https://github.com/opal/opal-rails) instructions, basically running:
+
+```
+bin/rails g opal:install
+```
+
+Edit `config/initializers/assets.rb` and add the following at the bottom:
+```
+Opal.use_gem 'glimmer-dsl-opal'
+```
+
+Run:
+
+```
+rails g scaffold welcome
+```
+
+Run:
+
+```

+
+```erb
+<%= stylesheet_link_tag    'glimmer/glimmer', media: 'all', 'data-turbolinks-track': 'reload' %>
+```
+
+Clear the file `app/views/welcomes/index.html.erb` completely from all content.
+
+Delete `app/javascript/application.js`
+
+Edit and replace `app/assets/javascript/application.js.rb` content with code below (optionally including a require statement for one of the [samples](#samples) below):
+
+```ruby
+require 'glimmer-dsl-opal' # brings opal and other dependencies automatically
+
+# Add more require-statements or Glimmer GUI DSL code
+```
+
+Example to confirm setup is working:
+
