Refactoring exercise to review Rails partials and helpers.

Rails Views & Helpers Training

Objective: Refactor forms, links, and redirects in this application to take advantage of Rails partials, view helpers (form_for and link_to), and path prefixes.

Getting Started

1. Fork this repo, and clone it to your local machine.

2. Change directories into the project directory, and bundle install.

3. Run rails db:create db:migrate db:seed (or rails db:setup).

4. Start your Rails server, and you're ready to go!

Steps to Refactor

1. Find two <a></a> tags in the views, and refactor them to use the link_to helper.

Tip: Use Command + Shift + F to bring up an interface to search all project files in Atom or Sublime.

2. Find one form in this application, and refactor it to use the form_for helper.

3. Refactor the recipes new and edit forms to use a partial.

4. While you're at it, refactor the Bootstrap navbar in the application layout to use a partial.

5. Find one redirect (redirect_to) in the controller methods, and refactor it to use path prefixes.
