TIL - Heroku and postgresql

Today I was working on my portfolio website. It's still not completely done, but I am happy with how it's turning out. I learned a few new things in the process:

  • I deployed my first two projects on Heroku,
  • I learned about Rack gem and how to use it to create a static page in Rails. I made an empty app and pushed it to GitHub just to have it handy whenever I want to deploy a static page to Heroku,
  • that being said, I learned that Heroku doesn't support sqlite3, so I had to look up how to switch to postgresql instead,
  • oh, and I connected my domain to my portfolio hosted on GitHub pages.

Overall, it was a pretty productive day!
