Sprites in Rails 3.1

Question

Is there a way to make and use sprites with Rails 3.1 (without external gem) ? I saw methods like sprite_tag or sprite_css but I am not able to use them!

Thank you in advance!

Answer 1

Rails 3.1 does not have a spriting solution out of the box even though it had been pre-announced it would (see slide 10 of this presentation).

Until it does, one (external gem) solution you can use is compass.
