# Narratron
## What is it?
From the front page:
> Narratron is a web-based implementation of the Exquisite Corpse technique for writing stories. Find a story, either by checking out today's public story or by being linked to it by a group participating in making their own, and you'll be shown one of the most recent sentences written in that story—but nothing before that.
> Try to figure out what sentence should come next, send that in, and then follow the story along as it goes. Together we'll make something weird and wonderful.
## How does it work?
This is my first Rails app so I'm still working out all the Rails-y specifics, but here's what I know to tell you:
* Ruby 2.1.2
* Rails 4.1.1
* Using rbenv and bundler
* postgresql in development and production
## Got all the stuff! How do I run it?
* run `bundle install` to install all the gem dependencies.
* run `bundle exec rake db:create` and `bundle exec rake db:migrate` to get your db set up
* run `bundle exec foreman start` to start unicorn.
## Can I help?
Probably! If you spot anything small that needs fixing, you're welcome to send a pull request. For anything bigger I'd love to discuss it first—feel free to get in touch with me and we can chat.
