AWS + Rails: How to Add Devise Users and Admins to a Rails App
Do you want to add User and Admin accounts to your rails application?
In this AWS + Rails series tutorial I walk you through the entire process of installing and configuring the devise gem in a Rails application. We will walk through adding users and admins accounts as well as profile pages.
Before we get started, we will use the AWS SES for email in our rails application which we created in our previous AWS SES tutorial. If you have not see that video yet and would like to follow along, I’ll link it in the card here and the description below, if you don’t have emails set up within your rails application you’re going to want to watch that first. This will be used for our "forgot password" functionality included with devise as well as any other notifications we would like to email our users.
