As a Frontend Software Engineer at IZEA, it is preferrable to be comfortable working within the rails framework. Hence this is a skeleton rails application, within which you are required to complete your challenge.

The sample application is only a sub feature in the world of content creation. Allowing end users to upload sample media as part of creating their online profile.

• Create a private/public github repository for the challenge
• Create a branch to work on the challenge(s)
• Once complete open a PR and invite the following to review your code
  • shiftedpixel
  • robinizea
  • m-soli

Please complete at least the required Challenge to the best of your ability.

If there are any gaps in the requirements, please reach out with questions, or use your product/design decision skills to fill those gaps yourself.

• Use the supplied Mock png's - convert the uploads index to match the new design.
  • You can find image fixtures for the gallery section inside assets/images/fixtures folder and icon svg's inside assets/images/svgs

• Currently the uploader uses a form submit action, however per the mocks, once a user selects a file to upload, it should upload and render in the gallery once upload is done. Think direct upload. Feel free to refactor the code and use any gems/upload frameworks.
  • Extra: Utilize Turbo Streaming to update the gallery without a full page visit.
• Hook up the delete action on the image with a backend action that destroy's an ImageUpload record - cleaning up the storage of the associated file.
