So FCC actually provided us a tutorial by someone with 2 best sellers on ruby. Incredible!

[@hiddenaether]

lmao, 2 "best sellers" is subjective and hardly an achievement for anyone well versed in Ruby.

[@bluebukkitdev8069]

@@hiddenaether Sure, except only a small percentage of people ever even write a book, so I'd say it's an achievement for anybody.

[@mark98115]

Not nesvessarily. I remember looking for a book on C++ and kept finding books with errors in them. It was a long time ago, so I only remember one of them, but there were a few that almost every book made. The one that stuck in my mind is that almost all the authors kept referring to "data structures" as "data". It may seem like something insignificant to many but there is a difference. It got to the point where In would scan the book quickly to check for those errors and discarded it when I found,them. I did find a book whose author did not make those errors and bought it.

For y'all having a prob in the signout page, at 1:57:00 the "method: :delete" doesnt work. It needs to be "data: {turbo_method: :delete}" because rails-ujs got removed. Make sure to install turbo before by following these steps: 1-Add the turbo-rails gem to your Gemfile: gem 'turbo-rails' 2-Run ./bin/bundle install. 3-Run ./bin/rails turbo:install.

So I was here when this video had a less than hundred views and I was learning rails. Hands down, best tutorials I could find when I needed guidance and help in understanding rails. John Elder helped in the way I never thought someone could help other person. And appreciating him is the least I could do. For someone just starting out with rails, this tutorial is the best kick-start to the journey. And be persistent, it's gonna come to you :)

[@Mike-Ward-Traveler]

I completely agree with you Anish. John Elder is an incredible teacher. I'm new to rails too. I came across him about a week ago and picked up 4 of his courses in a Udemy sale a couple of days later. They are project based with fast facts coming at you in an easy to understand way.

[@mattbaillie9258]

Overall this was a good tutorial. I was expecting more detailed explanations as to what exactly we are coding but it is more project-based where you code along. Also, as the video gets older it is important to note that there will be a number of issues you will run into. 1) There is about an hour spent on styling using Bootstrap. The version used is outdated and some parts are deprecated so you will need to make adjustments. 2) The Rails autogenerated pages for the Friends section is quite different than what is shown on the video 3) There is not much explanation as to what is going on in when Rails autogenerates stuff so that we can somehow troubleshoot any errors we may be having. 4) Ive ran into issues with destroying a friend, Sign in error. There are a few more other users have mentioned so check the comments to see what adjustments you may need.

First time on rails great tutorial! One thing to add for future reference, when we add the bootstrap class to the Edit and Back on the friends view, do it like this :class => "btn btn-primary". The one on the video broke for me on Rails 7.0.3, ruby 3.1.2p20

[@tolgaykaragoz2192]

Hello John, First of all, thank you for this excellent course. The migration you created in the Associations section actually just added the user_id field to the friends table and created an index on it, so actually it didn't create any foreign key or something between these two tables, so I couldn't understand why we wrote belongs_to or something inside the models.

UPDATES 2022: - If you can't install gems into ruby, try doing it directly though the CMD terminal, Git Bash sometimes have problems recognizing environments and can bug really easy specially on Windows 10. - If you are having problems with the delete button / method, try changing it to button_to and the rest of the code is almost the same as shown in the video. - I couldn't make the delete confirmation pop-up works, if you made it work please leave on the comments how you did it. - For those having trouble with the white background on the video: Turn On the Night Light (also known as Blue Filter) in windows 10. To do this, just go to your desktop, right click on it and click on "Display Settings" and turn the night light on. If it doesn't work, hit in "Night light settings" and then on: "Turn on now". This makes the white background much more tolerable. I finished the course and this is my review about it: Good course, but spends a lot of time off the goal. There's actually less than 2.3hs talking about Ruby / RoR and most of the talk is about Bootstrap or styling or git / github / heroku. So there's no point on calling these a full course about Rails. But anyway, maybe the course is aimed for people who never programmed before, have no idea about it and just want to get their hands dirty. I don't recommend it because there isn't too much explanation about the code and is just a "copy this and paste it here, believe me it works." and that's it. No technical explanations or teaches what the documentation actually means. Coding is not magic or a Cook Recipe...

I had the same issue, I had to go to 1:26:30 on the video and basically pause several times quickly to get the right formatting. I'll post it below for ease, but this is just a workaround since it's not creating the same way by default. Also, you'll need to delete the '_friend.html.erb' file in the same directory, as that is how it is formatting the data instead of using a table like the video shows.

Indeed, the installation of Ruby on Rails was previously the most challenging thing for me. After changing my laptop, I was forced to abandon the platform due to my inability to reinstall it, despite following the provided instructions. However, I experienced a yahoo moment today; I used ChatGPT-4 for the installation process. And the seemingly daunting task was completed in a mere ten minutes.

is railsinstaller.org down? it doesn't load :/

[@emberavenge7162]

Its down, but, you can install ruby, then in git bash run, gem install bundler, and then run, gem install rails, and it should work for you, after that you can skip the instalation steps but you still have to generate the project file.

In the 'Style with bootstrap' section, when you open your views (such as friends/index.html.erb), it shows a table in the HTML. For me it just shows something like and then . It renders in my browser with no table. I had to go in and add the entire table in my index.html.erb file. Does anyone know why this is happening? I'm brand new to ruby on rails.

I started about the same time as you, and the same happened for me. Perhaps ROR has changed something in the year since this course was released. I had some trouble installing it too and had to find different instructions from what the original was. Right now I'm stuck just after installing devise and setting the nav paths for sign up, sign in etc. The sign up page displays fine, but when I try to sign up I get an error NoMethodError in Devise::RegistrationsController#create. I've asked for help on substack but no help yet. I rechecked every step I did against the video, and did everything the same. So frustrating.

Yep exact same thing pretty much. I got the same or a similar error when attempting to register/sign up a user. I haven’t spent much time on it since then. Maybe need to do some more general ROR learning to figure that out. Let me know if you can make it work , I’ll do the same.

@@kami_dende I found a comment from George Meng below here where he said that a step was missing, and to type: rails generate devise:controllers users It seemed right to me, as the issue seems to be with the controller path, but I tried this and it still doesn't work.

[@dionnamorris6367]

I'm currently having the same issue

@@Bigdog33R Did you figure it out?
