Adding page-specific CSS to Rails Asset Pipeline

Question

This is a question that several people have asked before, but none of the questions were quite asked or answered in a way that I found helpful, so I\'m writing the quest

Official Solution

It is documented in the official Rails Guides here: http://guides.rubyonrails.org/asset_pipeline.html#controller-specific-assets

Actually you can leave out the require_tree directive (located in application.css and application.js) then use this in your template:

For controller specific JavaScript:

<%= javascript_include_tag params[:controller] %>

For controller specific CSS:

<%= stylesheet_link_tag params[:controller] %>
