After using thoughtbot/laptop and thoughtbot/dotfiles, this is what I append to my ~/.zshrc:

# Make VSCode the default editor
export EDITOR="code --wait"


# Configure Autojump and j alias
[ -f /opt/homebrew/etc/profile.d/autojump.sh ] && . /opt/homebrew/etc/profile.d/autojump.sh

Artifacts from a 1-year Full-Stack Developer program

If we run a 1-year Full-Stack Development program, what artifacts would we want students to exit with? What would hiring managers want to see? What will make our graduates stand out?

We should contact employer partners to ask them what they'd like to see, especially ones like who have strong apprenticeship/in-house training programs in place. E.g., thoughtbot.

Once we figure out the artifacts that would best demonstrate valuable skills/make candidates attractive, we should create a dream personal website/portfolio to act as a target for students, including stretch goals. We can then backward design the curriculum from there.

Rewards Maximizer

Admin enters master list of 15 major credit cards.
User signs up.
User selects which credit cards they have.
Admin keeps reward category (gas, groceries — admin will flatten all points, miles, etc, into some cashback value) for each card up to date.
When user makes a purchase, they will visit and the app will tell them what card to use.
- Some day in the future maybe we'll detect where they are with geolocation, but we'll see.

Feedback App Specs

Sneaky Southwest CheckIns App

Target

https://sneaky-sw.herokuapp.com/

Tasks

First, explore the target and ask questions about its features. For your own app, this would be the ideation/wireframing/scoping stage.
Then, domain model — figure out the entire database structure: all tables and all columns. What associations are there? What foreign key columns and/or join tables? For each column, what validation rules, if any?

Delegating 404s to builder.io in Rails

Give builder.io a chance to respond to paths that you don't have a route for before serving up a 404 page:

In Gemfile, add gem 'rack-cors' and bundle.

In config/application.rb, add:

 config.middleware.insert_before 0, Rack::Cors do
   allow do

	# frozen_string_literal: true

	require "bundler/inline"

	gemfile(true) do
	source "https://rubygems.org"

	git_source(:github) { \|repo\| "https://github.com/#{repo}.git" }

	# Activate the gem you are reporting the issue against.

	require 'rubygems'
	require 'active_support/all'
	require 'pry'
	Pry.start
	exit
