Installation

Requirements

Before you get started, the following needs to be installed:

• Ruby. Version 2.6.4 is currently used and we don't guarantee everything works with other versions. If you need multiple versions of Ruby, rbenv is recommended.
• RubyGems
• Bundler: gem install bundler
• Git
• A database. Only PostgreSQL 9.5 has been tested, so we give no guarantees that other databases (e.g. MySQL) work. If you're using OS X and have Homebrew installed, install it with brew install postgresql

1. Get the code. Clone this git repository:

git clone git://github.com/omkz/rails-react-blog.git

2. Install the required gems by running the following command in the project root directory:

bundle install

3. Create and initialize the database:

bundle exec rake db:migrate

4. Install the required javascript library

yarn --cwd client install
