Raid.it

A guild raiding and events calandar.

This project was put together as an experiment to understand why Rails applications seem to always devolve into massively coupled, difficult-to-maintain messes of code. Starting from scratch using ideas from talks and discussions with workmates and friends, I went through the process of building an application where each step was explicitly the opposite of what normally happens in a Rails application.

I blogged my thoughts and process under the series “Designing a Rails App”. The posts are as follows:

• Designing a Rails App Part 1
• Rules for Rails App Development
• Abstract Persistence Logic
• Naming is Everything
• Implementing Persistence
• RaidIt: Final Thoughts

This project is complete and I don’t plan on any more updates to this repository.

And code climate shows a perfect score!
