##db_assets_manager

Easily work with views and functions.

Put plain SQL queries for views into RAILS_ROOT/db/views/<view_name>.sql

You can create/destroy assets using db:assets:create and db:assets:destroy rake tasks. Also, db:assets:create runs automatically after db:migrate.

##jss_template

Provides plain templates to clientside JS.

Put HTMLs you want in JS somewhere in assets subdirectory, give them jss extension.
They will be bundled into JSS top-level JavaScript object respecting paths to them.

For example, app/assets/javascripts/templates/posts/index.jss will be available as String by JSS.templates.posts.index.
