After finishing the Rails tutorial I felt much more knowledgeable about Rails. I also felt very ready to stop working on a fake app and start working on the real thing.
I spent a month or two developing wireframes and iterating them with feedback from my partner Ben and the potential users he was interviewing. Then I put together the first entity relationship diagram for the Badge List and tried to scope out a basic learning strategy.

My Self-Directed Learning Strategy
- Figure out what database and gems I wanted to use
- Learn about each gem
- Study up on ruby conventions
- Start coding the app!
