Odin's Eye

A website designed with Ruby on Rails which facilitates a wide range of knowledge-sharing-based community activities. You can use the site to

• ask and/or look up answers to specific questions
• blog about a topic you care about or just leared about
• contribute to the community by reacting to or posting back to others' questions or blogs
• creating a private or public classroom where you can post lectures or topics upon which you want the students to discuss.
• follow and message other users
• see statistics on your published topics, such as view count, reactions, most popular, etc.

To visit the site, navigate to https://odins-eye.herokuapp.com
