Great episode Collin! The authenticate_by method really is a bug piece of making secure authentication from scratch in Rails. These are nuances that are important (and already done in Devise), so it's nice to see they're easier than ever in Rails.

Sounds like you have a bug somewhere. Have you compared your code to the repository?

Amazing, thank you!

Looking forward to meeting you Frank!

Probably at some point in the long-term. It's a huge benefit to have everything handled in Rails instead of Devise's mixture of Rails + Rack / warden that can be harder to customize.

Authentication got a TON of great improvements in Rails 7.1 with authenticate_by, generates_token_for, normalizes, etc. Super duper excited for these things and they should clean up a lot of code. 🎉

Hey Alex,

You'll either want to run the rails server in its own terminal (without bin/dev) or switch to using overmind instead of foreman. I personally use overmind and it lets you connect to each process and interact with them, but foreman cannot.

I think that would be a JOIN and referencing the other table's column, but good suggestion. 👍

I like using Tailwind UI so I can mix and match components / layouts to create what I need since I have to customize themes anyways.

Thanks, removed the link. 👍

Also just pushed up a branch for devcontainers which you can use in VSCode or GitHub Codespaces (which is similar to cloud9) https://github.com/features/codespaces

You'd need to install Ruby, Postgres, and Redis on Cloud9. We did a screencast on Cloud9 here: https://gorails.com/episodes/aws-cloud9-ruby-on-rails-development

Nope, partials start with an underscore. The js.erb extension is the format + the renderer. So this example is a response for the js format and rendered using erb.

You can have a controller respond to the JS format.

respond_to do |format|
  format.js
end

And then render a action.js.erb file

You could also use delete_prefix so you can leave the .ruby-version file as-is. 👍

ruby File.read(".ruby-version").delete_prefix("ruby-").strip

I believe you need to compile imagemagick with heic support. It doesn't always come out of the box (sometimes because of licensing issues).

Only the free videos are on YouTube. I don't know that we will move them, but you could use a VPN to access them from another country.

Yep, you would want to treat them as a view specs because that's what they are. view_context is an instance of ActionView::Base. 👍

Solidus is an open source Ruby on Rails e-commerce platform you can use: https://guides.solidus.io/

Hey Michael!

Jumpstart Pro doesn't require a subscription. The subscription gets you access to updates (like the upcoming Rails 7.1 and Ruby 3.3 upgrades), but you can cancel anytime and keep working on your app.

You can also use our Pay gem if you want to build your own template and add payments completely free.

Alternatives like BT are kind of shady unfortunately and hide their pricing which is $349/year for Stripe integration. That's $100 more than our Jumpstart Pro Rails SaaS template.
