Let's fire up the application locally
Step 1 Type this in the terminal:rails server This will print some stuff and stay running forever, printing more stuff every time you visit a page in your app. Step 2 You should see a notification appear in the bottom right corner of your editor. Click on the Open in Browser button in the notification to navigate to your app. If you don't see a notification on the bottom right corner of your editor, click the "bell" icon to bring it back up. Step 3 While the server is running, whatever you type in that terminal tab will be ignored. To get back to the terminal, you can stop the server by typing Control-c. Expected result:^CExiting

rails server ran your application locally just like Heroku will be running it on their servers. This provides a very simple means to see your changes before you commit and push them to Heroku. Control-c is a way of closing or cancelling terminal programs. Since rails server runs forever, you need to interrupt it with Control-c.
