About

• This is the capstone project of the Ruby on Rails section at Microverse.
• It is a fully functional web app, a social network where you can share recipes, and search through them by ingredients.
• Its purpose is implementing what we have previously learned throughout the Ruby on Rails section, i.e. proper use of ActiveRecord, model associations and validations, creating sessions and authentication, using embedded ruby, logic delegation to helpers, scopes, n+1 querry problems, and unit and integration testing.

Try it out

• To try it out visit this live demo link.
  You can log in with username test_user, or create an account.

Built with

• VSCode
• Ruby on Rails
• AWS S3
• TailwindCSS
• PostgreSQL
• Rubocop
• RSpec, FactoryBot, ShouldaMatchers, Capybara

Getting started

• Install Ruby and Rails. You will need at least versions 2.6.5 and 6 respectively.
• Fork the repository and download it to your machine.

Setup

• Run rails db:migrate db:seed to create the tables and populate with a few users, posts, and followers. You can check db/seeds.rb to see a basic example.

TailwindCSS

Configuration is already done but you can take a look at it's github repo if you're interested. As for the classes, here's a neat little cheatsheet to get you started, and you can always check their official page. This is my first project using it, and I'm already in love!

Usage

• Run rails server to start your local server and go to localhost:3000 or whatever is your set port.
• Log in with username: test_user to have a look around, or create your own account.
• You can upload a profile picture and cover image, follow/unfollow users,
  post recipes and explore them manually or by using the search bar.

Testing

• Testing is done with RSpec using FactoryBot factories and Capybara for integration tests.
  to run them simply run rspec in your terminal while in the root folder of the app.
