If you are new to JavaScript then one of the most important concepts that you will need to learn and understand is this.
For this walk through I will assume you have already made the models you would like to connect to action cable. First thing you will need to do is add action cable to your react app using.
After Writing my last blog I realized that Jekyll templates can also be confused for Handlebars templates. My previous blog post included a snippet Handlebars template for a task object which had an attribute of ‘content’. During the compiling process of my blog post the snippet of the ‘contents’ of my previous blog post was implanted.
I finished my first rails app with a jQuery Front End and my biggest takeaway from this is that Handlebars is AWESOME! Without it, this would have been harder and taken much longer.
This app was supposed to take only 3, maybe 4 days to make. However, I learned pretty early that rails is much harder when you aren’t within safe cozy blanket of a learn lab/code along. Like always, it took me quite some time to figure what I wanted to make. The idea for a calendar app came to me while I was browsing programmer forums and came across a layout template for a beautiful calendar design which can be seen here.
