Hotwire brings a modern frontend to Rails. We'll help you adopt it.
Many Rails teams want a faster, more interactive UI, so they add a JavaScript framework. That often means maintaining two systems, Rails on the backend and a separate frontend stack.
In those cases, every feature touches both codebases, making APIs more complex and slowing down development.
Hotwire offers a simpler approach. Built into Rails, it delivers real-time updates and dynamic interfaces with far less JavaScript. Our team pairs our Hotwire expertise with AI-assisted workflows to help modernize your UI without disrupting the application you already rely on.

Here's how we can help
One Codebase
No more splitting work between Rails and frontend developers
Incremental Adoption
Migrate page by page, not all at once- zero big-bang risk
Rails Native
Hotwire ships with Rails- you're adopting the standard, not adding a dependency
Find where Hotwire will have the biggest impact
We review your Rails application to see where Hotwire can simplify the frontend and improve performance. Our team identifies opportunities to replace JavaScript-heavy solutions with Turbo and Stimulus while keeping your architecture maintainable.
Migrate off your JavaScript framework without breaking anything
Moving away from a frontend framework doesn’t have to disrupt your app. We gradually introduce Hotwire into your existing Rails application, replacing legacy solutions while keeping everything working for your users.
Add real-time features with far less code
Hotwire is built into Rails and delivers real-time updates and dynamic interfaces with far less JavaScript. Many teams significantly reduce the amount of frontend JavaScript they maintain after moving away from SPA frameworks.
Get your team confident with Hotwire in weeks, not months
Adopting a new approach is easier with guidance. We help your developers learn Hotwire best practices so they can confidently maintain and extend your application long after the integration is complete.

Twila Rios
Manager of Digital Information Systems at Office of the General Convention
Planet Argon is consistently responsive and delivers their tasks on time. They contact me when aspects of the project need to be discussed and provide me with a detailed approach to their plans and actions.
I am impressed at their ability to take on our multiple, complicated existing apps and learn them quickly and well, and quite happy with the numerous improvements they have made for us. Also, their attention to maintenance and support tasks, in addition to development, has been great.
Jonathan Silver
Digital Marketing Director at West Dermatology
While their approach to customer serivce and client relations is great, what I actually found most impressive was their ability to help develop solutions in creative ways. None of the complex content issues were a problem, and the team was always open to new information/new requirements regardless of where we were in the process.
