Active Record Associations Practice

Associations let us access our data in diverse and flexible ways, simplifying our queries and allow some of our CRUD functionality.

When we are creating apps we start with a map of our initial tables and build them out one at a time.

After we create a table we add any necessary associations. To get some practice, we will start by drawing an ER Diagram, determining the proper associations/relationships between models and test them out in pry.

Note: These are often questions you may get in a technical interview when it comes to modeling a database for an app.

API Tools Recommendation

Swaggerhub

Our recommendation is to use SwaggerHub for building out our documentation and building out some mocked endpoints for partners to see. SwaggerHub is a web app that pulls together a suite of Swagger products. Among to pros listed below, Swagger is also a common documentation tool and we know some partners will be familiar with it.
