Rails: Bootstrap dropdown menu not working

Question

I am quite new to Rails and have been following the tutorial by Michael Hartl. Everything has been going along really well until I got to the drop down menu, which was wasn\'t

Answer 1

In modern version of the book (rails 6+) this is what i've done to make it work:

In app/javascript/packs/application.js change the order of

require("jquery");
import "bootstrap";

to be before turbolinks - so final implementation of application.js looks like:

require("jquery");
import "bootstrap";
require("@rails/ujs").start();
require("turbolinks").start();
require("@rails/activestorage").start();
require("channels");

Book shows to add jquery & bootstrap at the end after turbolinks - what in my opinion causes the problem. Thanks!
