### Goal
To teach you Ruby on Rails we are going to use a "Real World"
example. You've decided to create a voting system for you and your
friends to play with. You've decided at a minimum, you'd like to
allow users to:
* view the topics sorted by number of votes
* vote on topics
* create, edit, and destroy topics
You've sketched up an initial screenshot of what you want it to look like:

### Meta-Goal
When you have completed today's goal of getting the basic
application online you should understand:
* Basic Ruby syntax
* How to try your Ruby code (irb)
* How to go from requirements to a new working Rails application
* How to get your application online
* The basic tools a RoR developer uses (source control, editor, console, local server)
### Schedule
* 1-ish hour of ruby
* 4-ish hours of rails, broken up in 1-ish hour steps
This is just a rough guideline, not a mandate. Some steps you'll go
over and some you'll go under. It'll all work out by the end of the
day... unless I really screwed something up. :D
### Requirements
We're going to be working with:
* ruby 2.5.0
* rails 5.1.5
* bundler
* sqlite
* sublime text 3 or the text editor of your choice
Everything should be set up the night before during our
install-fest. Please ensure you have everything working _before_ you
show up for RailsBridge on Saturday.
You can verify that you have everything working by trying this out in your terminal:
<div class="console terminal">
<div class="wrapper">
<span class="label">Terminal</span>
<pre>
$ cd ~/Desktop/railsbridge
$ vagrant up
$ vagrant ssh
$ irb
>> 1 + 2
=> 3
>> require "active_support"
=> true
>> exit
$
</pre>
</div>
</div>
<i class="fa fa-cloud"></i> On Cloud9:
<div class="console terminal">
<div class="wrapper">
<span class="label">Terminal</span>
<pre>
$ irb
>> 1 + 2
=> 3
>> require "active_support"
=> true
>> exit
$
</pre>
</div>
</div>
If you can do that, you are probably good to go.

<div class="wrapper">
<span class="label">IRB</span>

<p>Yellow because we've gotten it done, but we have no clue what's going on.</p>
</div>
<div class="explanation">
<h1>Explanation</h1>
<p>Details of what the steps actually did... spell out the cause and effect.
