evazion 7e57ae7d3c posts: inline partials in posts/index template.
Make the posts/index template easier to read by putting everything in
one file, instead of splitting it up into a bunch of partials that
aren't used anywhere else.

Helpers

This directory contains helper functions used by views. Helpers are used for simple common functions, such as linking to users or formatting timestamps.

Helper functions are globals. If you see an unnamespaced function in a view, and it's not a Rails function, then it's probably a helper defined here.

All helper functions defined in this directory are globally available to all views. They're not limited to single views. For example, the functions in posts_helper.rb are available to all views, not just to app/views/posts.

The use of helper functions should be minimized. Partials or components are preferred for more complex widgets, or for things used in only one or two places. Helper functions should be limited to very simple things used in nearly all views.
