📖 The Blog

This feature-rich blog, powered by Ruby on Rails, Bootstrap, and Sassc_Rails, offers an engaging user experience. User Authentication and ActionText for posts and comments, complemented by notifications, drive user engagement. A live search bar enhances usability, while an admin dashboard with visual graphs tracks views and statistics. Admins can showcase their projects through user profiles, and both posts and projects support drag-and-drop uploads. Subscription features, integrated with Stripe and Pay, enable monetization and robust content management. Technologies like Postgresql, Heroku, Devise, Noticed, Ransack, Bullet, Wicked, Ahoy_Matey, Chartkick, Acts_As_List, and Whenever ensure efficient performance and scalability. Together, these elements create a dynamic and user-friendly blogging platform.
