Nolans "Jungle" Project (Lighthouse Labs)

Background

This project was completed as of Week 10 in the Web Development bootcamp at Lighthouse Labs. Jungle-rails is a mini e-commerce application built with Rails 4.2 for purposes of teaching Rails by example. I inherited an existing code base in a language with barely any prior experience with the codebase, ecosystem and framework.

Functional Requirements

There are multiple goals to this project:

Become familiar with Ruby and the Rails framework
Learn how to navigate an existing code-base
Use existing code style and approach to implement new features in unfamiliar territory
Apply previous learning tactics to research and become familiar with a new paradigm, language and framework
A simulation of the real world where feature and bug-fix requests are listed instead of step-by-step instructions on how to implement a solution
