An academic Ruby on Rails (API only) application built by students for the students of the Ferrara's Department of Engineering. Since it is an API only application, we've also build the client counterpart in React which you can find here.
📚 Disclaimer 📚
The project was born from one of our ideas and aims to fulfill the requests of the Concurrent Programming Laboratory course, i.e. it is not a platform associated with the University of Ferrara.

The endpoints are authenticated using the JWT standard thanks to the ruby-jwt gem. They provide data that follow the JSON:API specification as the serialization is done by the fast_jsonapi gem. Of course every result is paginated and we decided to entrust this task to the pagy gem.
