Build Something Beautiful & Meaningful

Learning Competencies

• Building a web application from scratch
• Managing the development process

Summary

You should work by yourself.

You've learned a lot in phase 2: Sinatra, Active Record, JavaScript, Agile, and much more. Each of these tools is useful in its own right, but together, they give you something much more powerful — the ability to build a web application from nothing.

For this challenge, your assignment is to build something. It can be as practical or trivial as you would want, as long as it is a 100% functional, full-stack web application.

You can build anything you want, provided that it meets the following requirements:

• It has a database
• Construct a controller that has at least 1 RESTful resource
• It uses an API (what does this mean?! explore!)
• It is styled
• It utilizes JavaScript
• It is deployed to Heroku

Once you've come up with an idea, get one of your teachers to approve it.
