It can with just a little extra code. We'll be covering that soon, but here's how you'd do it: https://expo.stimulusreflex.com/demos/chat

Yep! Devise just uses whatever email host you have configured with Actionmailer.

Yeah, I'd probably do an additional model. User has_one :student_profile and you can create that after they register or something.

You can always include the host: option in your url helpers, but I always forget which default_url_options it looks for when that error comes up.

I would think it would be the routes default_url_options.

Hey Cristian,

On Dreamhost, you'll need to figure out how to run with RAILS_ENV=production so it will use the production entry in config/database.yml and so on.

If it's a VPS server you're using on Dreamhost, try this guide to get you setup: https://gorails.com/deploy/ubuntu/18.04

Awesome, thanks for posting your solution. I'm sure at some point when I need to use OpenSSL directly, this will come in handy!

Strange, maybe try bundle exec cap install STAGES=production?

Hey Ricardo,

Sure, you'd just sign up for the monthly plan and cancel in 3 months. 👍

I'm going to update this series for Rails 6 really soon. Basically you just need to use a Javascript import to import the channel from if you're calling it from another file.

Yep! I've got some fixes incoming for that. I just didn't have a better SVG to work with for the check at the moment and I wanted to ship what I've got.

Yep, of course. Anything you can do server-side you can use here.

I agree! Just didn't have a better SVG to work with at the moment. Also going to add some tooltips.

I haven't used it, but I would ask for some help on the GitHub issues.

There's a Ruby package for OpenSSL you can use so you don't have to run shell commands. https://github.com/ruby/openssl

Devise has an user.update_without_password(params) method you can use. Might do what you need.

The defaults are also manipulated by the load_defaults method which can tell Rails to use the defaults from a specific version of Rails. Could be something with that maybe, I'm not sure. https://guides.rubyonrails.org/configuring.html#results-of-config-load-defaults

Hey Rajan, no plans currently. Mostly for a static template you would just extract out the layout into application.html.erb and then replace static portions with ERB code to make them render what's in the database. Nothing too special.

You also have a triple ... which may be a typo and you meant ..

In the asset pipeline, you have to reference files using the asset helpers so they can be found in production. You would do image-url('bgimage.jpg')

Thanks guys!

@Matthias, the main reason to move away from Bootstrap is that while it's good to get something up quick, it's really hard to undo all their styles to build something custom with it. At a certain point you might as well build it from scratch. Since Tailwind works in reverse, you can implement virtually any design without having to write custom CSS which is nice. Check out Adam Wathan's videos on YouTube where he re-implements several popular sites like Coinbase in like an hour with Tailwind. Really great tool if you want to implement your own designs. TailwindUI is great for kind of bridging the gap between Bootstrap and Tailwind. That's what I used here.

It took me several weeks to redesign everything and it was a TON of work. The main chunk of work was moving from Bootstrap to TailwindCSS and that's quite a lot of effort because you have to rewrite basically every line of HTML and re-implement all the Javascript functionality for modals, tabs, etc. It's finally complete enough to launch, so I'm super excited! 🙌

If there's anything I missed, please let me know!
