Learn the basics of how Rails allows you to upload files to a cloud storage service like Amazon S3, Google Cloud Storage, or Microsoft Azure Storage then attaching those files to Active Record objects.

Who is this for?
• Beginners and anyone interested in learning about Rails Active Record
• Ruby on Rails developers who haven't used Active Storage
• Ruby on Rails fans

Outcomes:
We are going to build a simple web application that allow users to store files to a cloud storage service.

Requirements:
• Laptop that is WiFi capable. Instructor will be using a Mac, but will assist Windows users as much as possible. Linux- you're on your own.
• Access to a command line utility
• Rails 5.2 So, please upgrade to the latest version
• Code editor (I will be using RubyMine)
• Web browser
• Storage Cloud Account ( Amazon S3, Google Cloud Storage, or Microsoft Azure Storage)

Agenda:
• What is Active Storage?
• Why use Active Storage?
• Build basic app together with uploading capability
• Enable app to connect to Storage Cloud Account *if time allows

Disclaimer:
• We will not go into comparing Active Storage with existing solutions, be it CarrierWave, Paperclip or Shrine, but rather try to make a beginner-friendly introduction to the framework
• Due to time, we won't be able to go through each storage cloud example of setting up Active Storage

FAQ:
Feel free to pack dinner or drinks as well! Don't code hangry.
