Development Notes

Switching Users

Only for development environment, you can easily switch users using ?user=<id> at the url. This will switch the logged user on-the-fly. (Example: http://localhost:3000/projects?user=3)

Populating the Database

The file seed.rb is responsible to populate the database with a lot of dummy data. You can use this to create an functional application and test things around. You can run it using rake db:seed
