LaunchPix

[

Description:

Thank you for using LaunchPix! Developed in 2018 as a skills demonstration platform I strive to reveal to users what code is being executed behind the scenes of this socially-driven sharing platform. The site was built with a Rails backend, React frontend, Foundation styling, and a focus on TDD with RSpec and Jasmine.

Setup:

To set up the project on your local machine (Mac):

1. Clone repo locally git clone https://github.com/SimplexDev/LaunchPix.git
2. Run bundle exec install then npm install
3. Run rake db:create then rake db:migrate && rake db:rollback && rake db:migrate then rake db:seed
4. Run rails s in one console tab, open another console tab and concurrently run npm start
5. Open your browser and visit localhost:3000

For testing:

1. Run rake db:test:prepare then rspec

Built With:

• React - Frontend
• Ruby on Rails - Backend
• Bundler - Ruby Gem Management
• NPM - JS Dependency Management
• Heroku - Server Host
• PostgreSQL - Database
