I'm trying to plan a deep-dive into the Rails source workshop for next Friday. What do you want to see? Anything in particular that seems mysterious or daunting that we could break down?

Why? Rails is your biggest dependency and you probably haven't seen what's going on in there. There's features you're missing out on entirely, and other ones Upgrades seem fraught and daunting and it's tough to know what to do.

The good news is: it's not that bad to dive into the Rails source, particularly if you have a guide. Once you're comfortable clicking around a whole slew of things open up for you: - You can see the actual APIs you're using - You can understand associations fully - You can demystify Active Record!

- You can learn new Ruby methods/tricks - ^ this can also accelerate your learning greatly - ^ once you learn how to dive into Rails no other gem will feel dangerous - ^ now you can evaluate other dependencies much better - ^ your code design can improve inspired from gems

I'm thinking 2 hours for $149. Would this work for you?

Tbh that’s fairly expensive. I might do it bc I’ve always wanted to spend more time with the Rails codebase. But it’d be a no-brainer at like $49
