What is this

trains is a demo blog built with Rails that follows best practices and is easy to enhance.

Some of the features of trains:

• Internationalization
• GraphQL API
• ActionText Support

Inspiration

Needed a rails application to test my ideas on.

Prerequisites

Before you begin, ensure you have met the following requirements:

• You have installed the latest version of ruby.

Getting trains

To get trains, follow these steps:

git clone https://github.com/2kabhishek/trains
cd trains
bundle install
rails server

Using trains

Using I18n:

Currently, trains supports only English and Spanish.

Visit http://localhost:3000/es to see the blog in Spanish.

Trains also supports GraphQL.

To use GraphQL, visit http://localhost:3000/graphql and enter the following query:

    query {
      posts {
        id
        title
        content
      }
    }

How it was built

trains was built using rails

Challenges faced

Setting up action text with Rails 7 was a bit tricky.

What I learned

• Explored more rails concepts
• Using I18n for model translations with the after_find callback

What's next

Will try out more ideas when needed.
