Realtime Group Chat with Rails [Revised] - Part 1 Discussion
Hi, does the revised version is build from scratch ?
I noticed it seems like from the start of the video, you have created the project and created some models.
Can I know which episodes should I watched before this video ?
There is something called the Jumpstart Gem. It is created by Go Rails. It allows automatically installs many gems and css for you and sets up basic models and controllers so you are all set from the beginning.
You can starta new template with jumpstart here: https://github.com/excid3/jumpstart -- Also there's a video in the readme about how it works.
Hi, I've been following the previous group chat tutorial on my rails 5.2.5 project and am curious about any compatibility this revised tutorial may have with 5.2.5 or if 6 is an absolute must to take on this tutorial?
Using :room_user in routes doesn't seem to work in Rails 7 for me, however, :room_users works fine... I assume Rails automatically handles the user association now?
