The project description is not very clear, people have to set up new models / scaffold and all. No big deal but some work that is kinda unrelated to the actual lesson.
So I had a much better idea, basically we keep the same project (handling a nested attributes form) and we do it on the flight booker project, where you first select a number of passengers and then on the second screen you enter the passenger details. We can ask people to enhance that very form, that they already have. This way they really see, how they can enhance their existing html, enhance their existing application.

Hi @RolandStuder 👋
Thanks for your work on this! We definitely haven't forgotten about this one and the Rails maintainer team was discussing it on Discord and just wanted a chance to do a sample run through the new project instructions. We will get back to you as soon as we can. 🙂
Great idea @RolandStuder, I love it. I'll do my best to test this out too when I get a chance. If there's any feedback from people in discord that have given this a beta test you could point me towards, that would be super helpful too :heart:
