My Party is an application for managing restaurant reservations.

In your terminal, you will need to clone the repo:

git clone https://github.com/melonious/my-party.git

Once the repo has been cloned, you will need bundle, in order to make sure you have all of the necessary gems:

bundle install

After you bundle, you will need to migrate:

rake db:migrate

Once you have done this, you should be ready to run the application on on your localhost:3000 server. In your terminal, start up your server:

rails server

All that's left is to open a browser and navigate to:

localhost:3000

NB: Our database is powered by PostgreSQL, so you will need to have PostgreSQL running in the background in order for the application to function. If you do not have the software, you can download it here.

My Party was created by Deri Cleland and Deanna Melin as a project for Wyncode Academy. Wyncode is a nine week, intensive, full-stack web development bootcamp where the creators of My Party learned Ruby, Ruby on Rails, Javascript, HTML, and CSS.

This project was assigned on a Friday and the code freeze was the following Tuesday. The purpose of the project was to practice and refine our newly gained knowledge of Ruby on Rails (we only had five days of exposure before this assignment).
