RoR GPT-AI-powered Rails development assistant

Example

RoR GPT can guide a developer through refactoring a monolithic controller into smaller, well-structured service objects.

Scenario

A team managing a legacy Ruby on Rails application finds that their controllers are becoming too large and hard to maintain. RoR GPT suggests using the 'Extract Class' pattern from the 'Design Patterns in Ruby' book【9†source】and breaks down the large controller actions into service objects, ensuring more modular and maintainable code.

Example

Providing advice on improving ActiveRecord query performance through eager loading and caching strategies.

Scenario

A developer notices that certain pages in a Rails app are slow due to N+1 queries. RoR GPT suggests eager loading using `includes` to optimize database queries and cache fragmenting to reduce database hits, referring to examples from the 'Complete Guide to Rails Performance'【8†source】.

Example

Advising on the implementation of the Strategy pattern to allow dynamic switching between different algorithms in a class.

Scenario

A Rails application handles multiple payment gateways with different logic for processing payments. RoR GPT advises using the Strategy pattern【9†source】to encapsulate each payment method in its own class, enabling dynamic selection based on user preferences.
