GNOMAD

Completed in 7 days as a capstone project for Dev Bootcamp, this mobile-first single-page web app allows travelers, or "gnomads," to connect with city residents, or "localhosts," in order to have an authentic local experience of their travel destination.

Uses a Ruby on Rails back-end, React front-end, Facebook OAuth for third-party authentication, Action Cable for real-time chats, and Semantic UI for a clean, responsive design.

Deployed on Heroku here.
