Makers BnB.

Our task

To create a mock version of AirBnB that allows the user to create, search and book venues. We made an extra step by making possible adding a venue as a favourite.

Our approach

We wanted to use this experience to learn everything we could, having that in mind we tried to integrate both Sinatra a Jquery on the same project.

We also:

• Had a Stand Up every day to choose and separate task.
• Had a midday reunion to check the team progress.
• Had a constant communication flow and asked each other for help.
• Had a Retro every night to make an assessment of the day's activities and set new tasks for the next day.

We learned:

• How to set up databases.
• How to use Jquery and Sinatra to make post and get requests.
• That making a whole project in one week is possible if you work hard.
• Communication changes everything.
• Coding with a good team is fun.

How to start

• Ruby version should be "2.4.1", run rvm install 2.4.1 to get it, then rvm 2.4.1 to use that ruby version.
• Check that "postgresql" is installed. if not, follow the official instructions on how to install it.
• Then install the bundler gem install bundler, and install the gems on the "Gemfile" by running bundle install.
• in the command line type psql psotgres, then create database makersbnb_test; you should see CREATE DATABASE as an output, now create database makersbnb_development; now close postgresql \q

To run tests

• If you followed the previous steps bundle exec rspec should do the work

To run the program

• in the command line type rackup config.ru -p 2000
• go to your browser and type "http://localhost:2000/"

Tech stack

• Ruby: -- Sinatra.
• Javascript: -- Jquery.
• DB: -- Postgresql. -- Datamapper.
