Wall-B

In a world where communication is only allowed over "The Internet"; ONE PROGRAMMER stands to make a "killr app".

Your mission? Create a website where people can create "Walls" anyone can add messages on.

Persistence

Wall-B will introduce you to the behavior and language surrounding the act of persisting information in a database. In order to run this application, you MUST have SQLite3 installed on your machine. Mac OS X users should automatically have SQLite3 installed, but Windows or Linux users will have to install it themselves.

Read our guide for installing SQLite3.

Fork and clone this repository
bundle install --without production
cp .env.example .env
