This project is part of weeks 8 and 9 of Makers Academy. The focus of the project was to practice AGILE methodologies, such as standups and sprint planning sessions, as well as learning Ruby on Rails along the way.
Project requirements were specified by Makers coaches who acted as the client. We were given a set of requirements at the start of the first week and again in the second week.

First, clone this repository. Then:
> bundle install
> bin/rails db:create
> bin/rails db:migrate
> bundle exec rspec # Run the tests to ensure it works
> bin/rails server # Start the server at localhost:3000If you don't have Node.js installed yet, you might run into this error when running rspec:
ExecJS::RuntimeUnavailable:
Could not find a JavaScript runtime. See https://github.com/rails/execjs for a list of available runtimes.
That is because Rails will use a Javascript runtime (such as Node) under the hood. The easiest way is to install Node by running brew install node -
and then run bundle exec rspec again
