How can I completely disable CoffeeScript in a Rails 3.1 app?

Question

At the moment when I generate a new controller, Rails also generates a .js.coffee file for the controller as well. As I don't use CoffeeScript I want Rails instead generate .js files for me.

Is it enough to comment out the coffee-rails gem to completely disable CofeeScript in a Rails 3.1 app?

Answer 1

1. Comment out gem "coffee-script" in your Gemfile
2. Use .js instead of .js.coffee for your javascript files
