I'd like my application to display different data on the frontpage depending on whether the user has been logged in or not.
def index
  if current_user
    # render another controllers action
  else
    # render another controllers action
  end
end
I can achieve this by using render_component. However it has been obsolete for some time. Although I can still use it as a plugin, I'm interested if anyone has a better approach. Just take in mind that rendering another controller's view directly is not an option.
Thanks.
