This is the Actual README for this application.
How to run:
Firstly go to and follow the instructions given by this website -- https://github.com/hiranpeiris/therubyracer_for_windows
THIS APPLICATION WORKS BEST WITH CHROME
Features will not be supported on other browsers only chrome. There is a built in method, the homepage will indicate whether or not the browser is suitable.
You will need two open command prompts. 1 is for the rails server The other is for the sunspot search engine
Change the root directory of both terminals to the root directory of the application with the ->cd example Firstly run bundle install to ensure that all the current gems are correctly installed
'->' indicates the start of the command follows this statement
In one terminal run ->rails s In the other run ->rake sunspot:solr:run
If there is problems with the sunspot command try running ->bundle exec rake:sunspot:solr:run If this does not work refer to https://github.com/sunspot/sunspot
Now in the latest chrome browser type localhost:3000 in the url
This should dispay the application

Api documentation can be found in the application in doc/app/index.html
Found problems with the rake doc:app command where not all elements that I had commented would be displayed. Sorry for this inconvinience. I have commented the CRUD elements, the controllers and the models. Views and css are not commented as it is fairly trivial
