Rails 7: How can I remove Turbo completely?

I have a Rails 7 application. After some development I see that Turbo (Hotwired) creates too many issues and I don't need it for this application.

Is there any way to remove Turbo completely from an existing Rails app?

What is the recommended way to remove it?

You need to remove gem "turbo-rails" from the Gemfile, run bundle install to update the dependencies. Also run

bin/importmap unpin @hotwired/turbo-rails
bin/importmap unpin @hotwired/stimulus
bin/importmap unpin @hotwired/stimulus-loading

and remove import "@hotwired/turbo-rails" from app/javascript/application.js

So far Turbo has just been a ball ache, I was planning on creating a rails 7 app for my startup and then slowly looking at adding Turbo functionality later. But I think I’ll just remove it as it’s causing issues with redirects, link_to etc
