GetCultured (RoR Microverse Capstone Project)

GetCultured is a lifestyle blog site where people all over the world can view, like, and write articles about their culture, food, lifestyle, etc.

Project Description

In this project, I designed my own online lifestyle publication with this design as a reference.

This sleek and modern website was built with a mobile-first approach, while applying fluid design principles. It is fully-responsive across all screen sizes - mobile, tablet, and desktop. Here, users can sign up, log in, write articles with multiple categories, and like other articles.

The purpose of this project was to demonstrate mastery of Ruby and RoR fundamentals. It has the following features:

  • Uses MVP architectural pattern, with RESTFUL routes configured
  • Utilizes controllers to intercept user requests, following Rails CRUD best practices/conventions
  • Uses scopes and helpers to keep clode clean
  • Uses view templates for HTML with embedded data
  • Connected to Postgres Database and Active Storage for image attachments
  • Has ActiveRecord validations and authentication via Devise
  • Avoids n+1 queries problem
  • Contains unit tests (Rspec)
  • Deployed on Heroku
