Sidekiq 8.0's new Web UI has landed on main. If you feel lucky, give it a test drive and send me any feedback.
You can use the `main` branch by putting this in your Gemfile and running `bundle`:
gem "sidekiq", github: "sidekiq/sidekiq"

After a few hours with Pico CSS. MUCH simpler markup with almost no classes. I love this.
Pico is amazing but the maintainer seems to have fallen off the Earth (literally no commits on github since August, I hope he's ok). 😭

I got Sidekiq job profiling working with zero config. Just add `profile: "nonce"` to job options, go to Sidekiq::Web and click View.
