Object-Oriented Programming II Explain the use of the self keyword in instance methods, the difference between class methods and instance methods, and inheritance 6. Client-Server & Ruby/Rails Installation Explain how the backend architecture of a basic web application (ecommerce site) works, the client/server model, and advantages of using a framework Successfully install Rails framework, troubleshooting common problems with documentation Launch first Rails app on a local Rails server 7. Git, GitHub, & Version Control Understand purpose of version control software (Git) and how Web Developers use GitHub to track changes for collaborative projects Install and configure Git to create a remote repository in GitHub and set a master branch Commit changes on their local server (Git commit -m “comment”) and push changes to repository on GitHub using Git workflow and best practices Troubleshoot common Git errors using the terminal and external web resources 8. Create New Pages in Rails Explain Rails project directory structure and file organization in new Rails application (app, views, layouts, controllers), and redirect to specific folder with terminal commands Create landing page and other static pages in Rails by generating a new page controller and page view (rails generate controller static_pages index) Add two types of code: Embedded Ruby (including links) and HTML content to Rails pages, and understand the difference between .html and .[login to view URL] file.

Heroku & the Production Environment Compare production environment and development environment, defining what is running on their local server, remote server, and database server Configure Heroku by installing the Postgres gem and explain functionality of that gem (ex: connect Heroku to the database server) Create a new app and database server on Heroku with help of Heroku Toolbelt and run database migration Deploy Rails project from a local server in your development environment to a remote server (Heroku) in your production environment Use Heroku Dashboard or command line to customize Heroku web address and other features 11.
