4. Decks:

• Every user has a default ‘all cards’ deck

5. Quiz:

   • User has the option to flip the same card back and forth and to proceed to the next card

6. Models:

   • Card Model:
   • belongs_to :user, has_many :decks, :through => cards_decks, native_word, foreign_word, picture (check out paperclip for more info)
   • Deck Model: belongs_to, :user, has_many :cards, :through => cards_decks, name
   • User Model: has_many :decks, has_many :cards

Second iteration:

1. Input: add option to input via mobile (email/text?),

   • User sends a message containing the word in their mother tongue,
   • option to also send the translation they want to include,
   • option to also include an image

2. Decks: User has the option to assign a card to a custom deck,

   • when a card is added via mobile, user must finalize the card and add it to a deck (occurs at next user login to web app)
   • User can re-assign cards to different decks/multiple decks

3. Quiz: Basic performance tracking - how many times right, how many times wrong globally

4. User Model: add a folder in /images for each user when they successfully create an account named with their user_id

   • storing their uploaded images

5. Deck Model: regarding sharing decks: schema will have to be changed to a deck having many users through users_decks

   • (think about this later, could be complicated; think about deleting users’ photos for their decks for privacy concerns)
