Getting Started

• If you are using VSCode, navigate to File > Open Workspace from File. Select lygma.code-workspace located in the root directory of the project.
• Whenever you pull new changes from the repository, make sure to run bundle install (from your source folder). This will install any missing gems needed to run the application.
• In order to always have the most recent version of the database, make sure to run:

  db:reset    # drops database, re-creates it, and runs pending migrations
  db:seed     # populates the database with data defined in db/seeds.rb

• With all of these steps complete, you should be able to start your server by running rails server (from your source folder).
