In my last post, we created a simple hello world react app with ruby on rails. In this post, we will continue to expand that app by adding in react router, and setting up routes and multiple pages in our app.

I've seen people looking for a simple way to create site wide login and sign up modals with devise for their rails apps. So I thought I would share an idea I had for a simple way that you could set this up.

There are two basic methods (at least that I know of) that you can use to create a react app using ruby on rails. The first option is to create 2 separate applications - one for your frontend react app, and a separate rails api. Then you can deploy the react app using something like surge.sh, and deploy the rails API with Heroku or similar.

In this post, we're going to build a twitter bot. But we're not going to build any lame old follow bot. Oh no, we're going to build something much better. In less than 20 minutes, we're going to re-create quite possibly the most important bot on Twitter: the africa by toto bot.
