Welcome to the Rails Debugging Lab! This lab is designed to enhance your understanding of Ruby on Rails by presenting you with a series of intentionally introduced bugs, issues, and challenges within a pre-built Rails application. Your task is to identify, debug, and fix these issues, applying best practices and reinforcing your knowledge of Rails' structure and operation.

- Rails Fundamentals: Deepen your understanding of MVC architecture, routing, migrations, ActiveRecord, and more.
- Problem-Solving: Enhance your problem-solving skills in a real-world context.
