This project was assigned to me on 8/7/12 as a test project for a company that was considering hiring me. At the time, I had no serious knowlege of Rails 3, nor in-depth knowlege of the Rails front end. That week, I was helping to run the Lone Star Ruby convention, and developing the bylaws for an organization I helping to was form.
I am told that the company was very pleased with what they got. I think it does a decent job of showing what kind of work I do when I’m learning.
I santized the README.rdoc & INSTRUCTIONS files.

This is a Ruby 1.9, Rails 3.2 application.
If you have Ruby 1.9 and bundler installed, all you should need to do is:

Use ‘rake’ to run tests.
This is a very simple deal site. Actually buying the deals is for the next version ;). Each Publisher (white-label site) has Advertisers (merchants, retailers, stores), and the Advertisers have Deals. The admin interface is at / (no security!). An example of a deal is at /deals/1 (if you ran db:seed). Some Publishers have custom templates and assets in app/themes. Publishers can be have a simple parent-child hierarchal relationship.
