Possible to use ViewComponent? #206

Description

@dentarg

I like the gist of this, from https://viewcomponent.org/#why-should-i-use-components

Unlike traditional Rails views, ViewComponents can be unit-tested. In the GitHub codebase, component unit tests take around 25 milliseconds each, compared to about six seconds for controller tests.

Rails views are typically tested with slow integration tests that also exercise the routing and controller layers in addition to the view. This cost often discourages thorough test coverage.

With ViewComponent, integration tests can be reserved for end-to-end assertions, with permutations and corner cases covered at the unit level.
