Installation & Setup

Fork the rxeactions repo and clone it down to your computer. In the terminal, cd to the rxeactions root folder. Run bundle install to load the required Ruby gems and dependencies. Then type in rake db:migrate to create a new database from the migration tables stored under db/migrate. Type rake db:seed if you'd like to pre-populate the app with seed data. Look in db/seeds/1-users.rb for login information to explore a pre-populated account.

Usage

To deploy the Rxeactions web app locally, type shotgun into your terminal and open your browser to localhost:9393. From there, you'll be able to navigate and interact with the app as if it were live. Don't forget to return to your terminal and type Ctrl + C to stop your session when you're done!
