Pressure Project 2

For my pressure project, I chose to make a simple webpage that would give you a new fortune every time you clicked on a fortune cookie emoji.

I chose to do it like this because I wanted more experience with the particular web framework I used, and I wanted to make an interesting web experience in general.

Overall, I think I didn’t scope enough out for this project; I wish I had done more than what the final project ultimately ended up being but problems with getting a webpage up and running in the first place was an impediment in my project. I did have a lot of fun writing some of the fortunes though. There is a total of 81 unique fortunes that can be viewed, some I got from sites, others I changed a bit to fit the tone of the project more, and others I wrote from scratch. Given more time, I would have liked to include inputs from the user other than clicking such as giving fortunes to fit a name or picking from several fortune cookies on the screen.

If you’d like to read the fortunes in the project as a list, check out my github. The generation of the fortunes is in db/seeds.rb.
