bookstore-rails-api

JSON API app build using Ruby on Rails

App generated using this custom Rails Template

Version 1 Features:

• User account creation and update
• Token authentication using devise and jwt
• Request authorization using pundit
• Database search using pg_search
• Model and request specs using rspec-rails and factory_bot_rails

Background

With frontend frameworks and libraries increasing the complexities of processes that happen on the client side, we can now build simpler backend applications. REST API's connect such client-side applications to the database.

I built this backend API mainly for the application I built using React and Redux (as well as a server-rendered version using Next JS).
