Today is the last day for our project #2. Monday we start fresh on project #3. I met the basic objectives for this project which consisted of creating a CRUD app with RESTful routes and incorporating authentication. We used bcrypt and salts for authentication.
There are still several functionalities I’d like to add to this app. Right now I have google maps incorporated into the show page for each restaurant. It’s using the latitudes and longitudes that I hard coded into my seed.rb file. I want to have google maps display by address. I will work on that today.
My “create a new user” is working and folks can log in successfully. However, there isn’t an action on the website itself that folks have to login to be able to use.
For the next project I’m going to worry less about the styling and CSS initially. I found that when I’d get stuck on the logic portions of my code that I’d soothe myself by switching gears to work on styling. It is a welcome break and it’s fun, but next time I’ll treat CSS more as icing on the cake.
