Is the default importmap method unrealistic in the most popular real world use cases?

You can't use additional CSS packages (like Flowbite) with the official tailwindcss-rails gem. According to this answered issue, you should either give up importmap and use a bundler, or use a CSS file from CDN - which is not ideal (unnecessary classes won't be purged this way).

  Use ESM with importmap to manage modern JavaScript in Rails without transpiling or bundling.

  

You can't use TypeScript, or anything that requires pre-compile, with importmap. answered issue

I happened across this GitHub repository while searching if there was an easy way to “uninstall” importmaps: https://github.com/rubys/rails-uninstaller-tasks

• jsbundling-rails

  38 801 6.5 Ruby

  Bundle and transpile JavaScript in Rails with esbuild, rollup.js, or Webpack.

  

I think this is more like a demo - you will not get the same features as jsbundling-rails by only following instructions in the video. For that you will need to change some other files as well. You can find out what files to be added/changed from the install script. The important bits are mostly the same as in the video, but some supplement parts are not mentioned in the video. Some people actually reported in the comment that they can't deploy such app, but I think it depends.
