🚀 Excited to share this: I’m writing a book. It's aimed at Rails devs who want to start using AI in their work. I’m launching early - it's mostly just notes so far. If it could help you, check it out: worried.ai 📚🤖 #buildinpublic#chatgpt#rubyonrails
Working on a template feature in @AdventurePlane this weekend and drawing inspiration from @ConvertKit as to how they manage templates and even the UI around education and drawing the users attention!
@KarteDrop Also pushed a small update to lazy-load large images throughout the app.
Fought getting swiperjs lazy load to play nice with #rubyonrails image_tag. Was about to give up when I switched to plain #HTML img tags and it immediately worked. 🤦
This is something that always felt daunting, but an awesome YouTube guide from @Deaniocom made it pretty painless. Google and Facebook both working inside of an afternoon.
day 2/4 of #100daysofcodechallenge Finished the 1st version of 'follow/unfollow companies' feature. did a bit more research on the twitter api. Hopefully, i'll integrate it over the next couple of days.
Today starts my #buildinpublic post. My plan is post at a minimum, weekly updates, which I hope is a reasonable cadence for me. I mainly work on #rubyonrails projects, but since I have to learn Swift for work (don't ask, j/k) 😂 I may share on that topic too.
Updated the blog to @bridgetownrb 1.1 today and published the first post - how a trip to #Disneyland in 2019 led (tangentially) to the creation of @qabuddyapp.
Worked on hooking up paper_trail last night to get version histories for my ActionText fields. Displaying history info as a recent activity dashboard feed.
0/5 Day one of using @bullettrainco for my new SaaS project is midway through 🤓 Here’s what I’ve learned thusfar…a small thread🧵 #buildinpublic#rubyonrails 👨🏾💻
Making a side project which is a time management web app inspired by ideas I read from Deepwork and Make Time. It's built with Ruby on Rails, React with Inertia.js, and Tailwindcss with daisyui.
For Unbrea.ch I enabled @heroku's Review Apps so that on each pull request we can actually try the app, see the change live, not just a code diff. Heroku pushes the state to @github which shows a button that opens the app. It's a #rubyonrails app. #buildinpublic
100% test code coverage... because I can... because it pleases me... because it's late and I might be delirious and I might be imagining it. Building unbrea.ch#buildinpublic#rubyonrails
Part of my motivation for building is to release something, to have users, to make money, but also, I just like building cool things I'm proud of... and I'm proud of this. #buildinpublic#rails#rubyonrails
Milestone wise, I am working on building the backend first. Tonight I made great progress on that front. I chose #RubyOnRails API only for building the backend API coz I live #ruby and it's most suited to build a an API prototype.
Good morning! I had a great day working and learning how to get my social media app setup. Now to #code code code the rest of the app into existence. I switched things up and am now using Ruby on Rails. @Actstwoforty2#CodeNewbies#rubyonrails#buildinpublic
Day 62: mostly worked on @sig_five Today. Built out the base of the static pages (home, about, contact). Installed bootstrap (I'll rip it out later) mainly to do rough layout. Tomorrow I'll add secure passwords. #100DaysOfCode#rubyonrails#buildinpublic
Day 62: mostly worked on @sig_five Well I didn't get as far as I wanted, mainly dealt with some bugs and finished out some basic layout stuff. Was fun seeing the logo on the webpage for the first time :) #100DaysOfCode#rubyonrails#buildinpublic
Day 65: feels like I'm making a lot of progress. Worked on @sig_five. Finished password security and the basic login form(still can't login yet). Maybe tomorrow. #100DaysOfCode#rubyonrails#buildinpublic
Day 68: Worked on @sig_five. Added @jgthms' Bulma to the app. Works great, didn't have to fight with it to get it to work. Very easy to use. Proceeded to build out a navbar and front page. Going to use this on my personal site. #100DaysOfCode#rubyonrails#buildinpublic
Day 73: Worked on @sig_five Managed to get some working css in. Not super pretty or anything, but will serve for now until I get a designer :P Signing up and logging in works as well. ignore the beautiful debug info on the screens 😂 #100DaysOfCode#rubyonrails#buildinpublic
I'm thinking about starting my dev blog. My first ideas about posts topics: 1. Subscription payment flow with Stripe and Rails 6. 2. How to push your changes to the repository by GitHub API and RoR? What do you think about it? #buildinpublic#rubyonrails#blog
