Steps to create a basic Rails app with Bootstrap

rails_basic_setup.md

1. create rails app with rails new yourapp --database=postgresql -T

2. create Github repo, cd into your app, git init, git remote add origin [email protected]:username/yourapp.git, git commit -am, git push -u origin master

3. add to Gemfile:

     gem 'jazz_hands', github: 'nixme/jazz_hands', branch: 'bring-your-own-debugger'
     gem 'pry-byebug'
     gem 'better_errors'
   end```
   
   `gem 'bootstrap-sass', '~> 3.3.6'`
   
   

4. set up bootstrap:

   $ mv app/assets/stylesheets/application.css app/assets/stylesheets/application.scss

   add the following to app/assets/stylesheets/application.scss:

   @import "bootstrap";```
   
   add the following to `app/assets/javascripts/application.js`:
   ```//= require jquery
   //= require bootstrap-sprockets```
   (remove `*= require_self`)
   
   

5. wipe out turbolinks:

   remove 'turbolinks' from your Gemfile

   remove the //= require turbolinks line from your app/assets/javascripts/application.js file

   remove the two "data-turbolinks-track" => true hash key/value pairs from your app/views/layouts/application.html.erb

6. bundle install

7. Start building!
