A simple Sinatra app that will allow you to inventory your comic books - physical and virtual. You can see it in action on Heroku >> Comiks Tracker.
My second official Flatiron project, I decided to make something I could use. We have a ton of comic books in the house, and there are times a certain person attempts to "borrow" an issue permanently. I honestly didn't understand why I needed to this when I could just use Rails, but Sinatra has proven to be a great teacher. I'm way more comfortable with ActiveRecord now. Validations and associations are cool! And I was able to use a bit of bootstrap in the process. Very happy with this project and plan on building out my features a bit more.
Clone this repository to your computer and run the following commands in your terminal:
bundle install
rake db:migrate
shotgunThen navigate to localhost:9393 in your browser to see it in action.

Thanks to Brian Emory and his Corneal gem. Thanks also to The Wim Wauters Blog for helping me get straight with my Bootstrap tables.
