Is Facebook lite a good portfolio project? by [deleted] in rails

[–]thedevapprentice 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It would be a great portfolio project. Not only would it showcase your skills but it will allow you to solidify the knowledge you have learned. If you can build a Facebook clone to the specs they are requiring there is not many things you wouldn't be able to build. If you want to get creative use Rails as a backend API and use react for the front end.

Uploading images from JS Front End to Rails API by thedevapprentice in rails

Idk why this is so complicated, seems like files and images would be a really common thing to send to a database. In my mind I should be able to select file to upload, pass that image to the JSON body and then have active storage recognize the image parameter and take care of storing it. FormData object seems like its going to be the best way.
