I'm proud to say that this is the most feature-rich Ruby-on-Rails-6 course on the internet
Through the years of being a software developer I've learnt a lot by trial, error, and research.
You don't have to spend all the time I did.
In this course I've summed up the best practices of using different gems and features.
You will be able to learn it all by practice!
As well we will learn to troubleshoot different issues in development and production.
We are going to build an online learning platform, step-by-step, feature-by-feature!
As a beginner you will learn the whole process of developing an application with multiple features.
