Use this commands for new Rails app:

"rails new myapp --main -d=postgresql -c=tailwind -a=propshaft"

New features:

✅ Built-in PWA (Progressive Web App) support
✅ Default Github CI config
✅ Propshaft - lightweight version of sprockets
✅ Brakeman - security scanner
✅ Rubocop code linter

You can learn more about all the "rails new" options by typing "rails new --help" in your terminal.
