Let's Build: A Twitter Clone with Ruby on Rails 7 - Part 6 - Liking Tweets and final touches

PART 6 of 6 - FINAL PART

Timestamps: 01:05 - Generate Like model 03:34 - Update Tweet, Comment, and Like models 04:00 - Update routes 04:40 - LikesController logic 07:49 - Creating a Likeable concern module 10:15 - Create likes views and render for tweets 13:25 - Likes partial 18:11 - Repeating like logic for comments 19:01 - Updating stats (comment counts, retweet counts) 23:38 - Update profile tweets rendering

What's in this part? In the last part of this series, we'll add a polymorphic "like" feature to the app that enables us to reuse some code responsible for liking Tweets and comments in similar ways.

Series description: If you have followed me for some time you might remember a series I did on Ruby on Rails titled “Let’s Build”. These guides were a “learn in public” exercise I tasked myself with that ultimately resonated with a number of folks.

This specific mini-series is going to focus on redoing an older “Let’s Build” where I took on building a Twitter clone.

Since the advent of Rails 7, the way you might approach new problems when building software has changed a great deal. I wanted to take the opportunity to create some fresh content and show you how to leverage some new features of Ruby on Rails along the way.
