rails-file-management

Organize Rails tutorial lesson files using a three-layer model: base Template, _files overlay, and _solution final state. This structure streamlines lesson workflows by managing predictable paths inside a workspace while avoiding file chaos.

Manage a multi-layer Rails workspace by using Template frontmatter for selection and _files/.tk-config.json extends rules. This shares base structures and ensures lesson-specific files overlay templates correctly while keeping protected infrastructure files intact.

The _files overlay merge rules mechanism works by layering lesson-specific files over base templates and completed solutions within a workspace. It enforces _files/.tk-config.json extends to keep protected infrastructure files intact during the merge.

Yes, this Rails file management approach supports WASM build workflows. The three-layer overlay merge model organizes files across templates, _files, and _solution while maintaining the necessary structure for WASM build compatibility.

Yes, you can use _files/.tk-config.json extends to share base structures across multiple Rails lessons. The config extends rules allow base templates to be overlaid by lesson-specific files, ensuring consistent workspace layout and predictable paths.

Your workspace file structure breaks when overlay merge rules are not enforced or Template frontmatter is misconfigured. Properly applying _files/.tk-config.json extends and the three-layer model keeps protected infrastructure files intact and prevents file chaos.
