This is so helpful, Lewis! Thank you :)
I need to build some internal tools to generate reports, csv's, etc. I need to ingest data from a few different APIs, into a central DB, and then build some tools for end users on top of that data.
For example, once I have all of the data from the APIs, the end user would fill out a form to provide some data, and then the app will generate a csv for the end user to download.
I am primarily a frontend dev and could use some help/advice here. My approach thus far has been to use Rails services and Rake tasks that fetch the data from the APIs, but am wondering if there is a better approach. Also I am not sure what gems may or may not be useful.
I have a license for jumpstart pro and was thinking of maybe using that to give me a "head start?"
If anyone has done anything like this before and could "point me in the right direction" I would really appreciate it!
Thanks in advance :)
