This is a Rails 5 template used for onboarding new Rails developers.
It gives us a known starting point from which we can gradually introduce developers to Rails.
This is a very bare-bones application that has the following gems installed on top of the Rails defaults:
- Devise for authentication
- Bootstrap 4 to reduce eye-strain
- Simple Form to provide a nicer experience building forms
I will provide tasks that will gradually expose the new developer to more of the gems that are part of InterExchange's SoE.
We use SQLite for a database for ease of entry.
Running bin/setup from your command line should setup the database and run the seeds file (db/seeds.rb) which will create a single User you can sign in with.
Look in the seeds file to find the user's credentials!
