Learnings
Don’t forget to build .json.jbuilder views for anything you want the controller to render
Don’t forget to remove your store listeners before you unmount React components (componentWillUnmount). Otherwise will get an error message about trying to setState() before a component is mounted
To test API routes, can make $.ajax({}) queries directly in Chrome Dev Tools
$.ajax({ url: 'api/users', method: 'POST', data: {user: {username: "fake-user", password: "password123"}}, success(resp) { console.log("Successfully created user") console.log(resp) } });
4. Don’t forget to make database tables before testing (users) * rails g model User - will create model & migration (and boilerplate code) 5. BCrypt gem - include in Gemfile 6. When you get a 500 Error, check your Rails Server log for full error message 7. Triplebyte - job placement/posting site. Have to go through their screening process, but then they will help put you in touch with potential employers 8. Cloudinary - CDN, image hosting site 9. unsplash.com - high-resolution images, good for backgrounds
