###Technical Details: TunedIn allows for users to create a custom profile page, detail their experience and education, connect with other users, and create posts. Information from the database is rendered in JSON.
The following table illustrates how I implemented making connections:
| column name | data type | details |
|---|---|---|
| id | integer | not null, primary key |
| connector_id | integer | not null, foreign key (references users), indexed |
| connectee_id | string | not null |
| status | string | not null, default: pending |
I made it a priority to avoid duplicating data. Accordingly, this table encapsulates both connection requests and made connections. To do that I had to create a variety of associations to figure who made the request, who could accept it, and who would get a notification as a result. It seemed a bit daunting at the beginning, but after I wrapped my head around it I realized it's not so complicated.
