, then you should be able to see the link. Copy it.
1-Git clone command
git clone git@github.com:alexcalaca/coding-challenges-ruby.git
Run the previous command in your desired folder.
Note that it's not necessary to create a specific folder for the project, because a new one will be created automatically.

ls

In my example, the new project is coding-challenges-ruby
.

4-Set up database
rails db:setup
The bin/rails db:setup
command will create the database, load the schema, and initialize it with the seed data.
5-Run migrations
rails db:migrate
Note that running the db:migrate
command also invokes the db:schema:dump
command, which will update your db/schema.rb
file to match the structure of your database.
6-Start the server
rails server
The bin/rails server
command launches a web server that comes bundled with Rails. You'll use this any time you want to access your application through a web browser.
