Ruby on Rails API with Vue.js - Configuring Rails - 02

Hi, My name is Andy Leverenz and I work as a Product Designer at Dribbble. For fun, I design, code, and write. Check out my blog called Web-Crunch https://web-crunch.com where I publish design and development tutorials with the occasional vlog.

PART 2 of 8

Ruby on Rails API with Vue.js

An 8-part tutorial on how to build a Ruby on Rails API based app using Vue.js as the frontend

Did you know Ruby on Rails can be used as a strict API based backend application? What's the benefit to this? Think of it as a single source of truth for multiple future applications to absorb and use this data directly. Anything from a native mobile application, to a front-end framework, can talk with this data. Many apps can essentially communicate with a "source of truth" in return which means more consistent applications for all.

In this build, I'll be crafting a simple but thorough application where Ruby on Rails is our backend and Vue.js + Axios is our front-end. I'll create two apps that communicate in order to achieve the same result of a normal Rails-based app but with all the perks of an API.
