Day 44: Rails (Controllers, RESTful routing)

Index, new, create, edit, update, show, delete are the 7 routes that are part of the RESTful architecture. Pretty much stating that all users need these 7 functions.

This morning we had a lecture about this RESTful architecture originally thought of by a Stanford Ph. D. The rails community has heavily accepted this and have created routing rules so to make it easier to organize your code.

Today we continued working on assignments by building application. This time actually using a SQLite database to connect with the Views and Controllers.

The true beauty of Rails is how quickly I am able to build this application as opposed to Codeigniter or Express. It's no wonder that it has such popularity amongst the startup community!
