Meet your team in person

What’s important when building a first app with Ruby on Rails?

Use rubocop and write tests during development - this is how it’s done on real projects. To deploy your application, you can use heroku - it’s free and easy to use. Also, show your app to a couple of friends and ask for feedback. Finally, describe how to launch your app in readme, and populate your website with test data.
