Rails 6 for Beginners Part 18: Accessing the Current User

[@sarvarkhalimov111]

Chris, thanks for this tutorial. Great job!

Once after I did all the steps, I'm getting an error that throws me to application.html.erb at the shared/flash. Do you know why is that?

Hi guys! I haven't started this youtube course yet, but as someone who has started it, would you reccommend it? (why/why not if u dont mind explaining)

Rails 7 is a better place to start. Check out GoRails.com/path to stay learning the latest Rails version. 👍

I think it depends if you are a beginner or not, if so I'd say to find something on the current version of Rails to avoid the headache of having to constantly read the docs for debugging. If you are more experienced and don't mind that, then I say this is a good series. I've been following along and making minor adjustments given I am on Rails 7 and everything is working as intended so far.

Hello teacher, Why don't we place current user in session itself? When we are using 'set_current_user' as a 'before_action' , it would be called before each action(on any request), isn't this unnecessary? Instead putting it on session, we need not query user everytime an action is called! Would be happy to hear from you, and thanks for this amazing tutorial.
