Api on Rails 6

#rails #ruby #api

Dear Ruby community,

I just finished rewriting my API on Rails book for the brand new version of Rails 6 released last Friday. This book discusses of bests practices for building a scalable API with Rails 6.

I didn't just adapt the content, but I also chose to simplify some examples and use tools that seem more current to me, such as:

authentication tokens with JWT
compliance with JSON:API specifications
unit and functional tests with Minitest instead of Rspec

It took a lot of work on my part, so don't hesitate to take a look at Leanpub.

The book is also available in open-source on Github so feel free to fork and suggest improvements. I built the book using Asciidocotr so it's really easy to contribute. You can also translate in your language and sell it on your preferred platform.

Thank you for reading.
