Yelp is a business directory service and crowd-sourced review forum, and a public company of the same name that is headquartered in San Francisco, California. The company develops, hosts and markets the Yelp.com website and the Yelp mobile app, which publish crowd-sourced reviews about businesses.
This project was the week 8 tutorial from Makers Academy: I had to create a Yelp clone but more importantly through it, to get a basic introduction and understanding of Ruby on rails. It learnt about objects, orientation, folder structure, migrating and managing databases and test-driven development. I also added and experimented with some cool CSS on top of it to make it stand-out and to experiment with features I was curious about.
