Hi Geremia,

I would like to congratulate you guys for this application, which could be of help for many people and organisations. I would like to deploy it after some customisations as a free car sharing plateform in our region (Facebook login/registration, itinerary publication, users being able to communicate and arrange for the car sharing details). I am new to Ruby on Rails so I have a couple of worries:

  • At this stage, can this application be deployed in production mode. Are there any security issues, can it break at some point and lose all the users database .. etc?

Hi, thanks

I am new to Ruby on Rails so I have a couple of worries:

Here there are some resources I've found in a tweet yesterday: https://twitter.com/marckohlbrugge/status/1271749844886061059

can this application be deployed in production mode.

Not actually, take a look at the ToDo wiki: https://github.com/diowa/icare/wiki/To-Do

Are there any security issues

None that we know, of course :)

All dependencies are up-to-date, we have @dependabot-bot, Hakiri, Synk, and GitHub's own Security overview to help us watching the repo

For security reasons, the route should be generated by the server, not by the client (ref to the To-Do list)

can it break at some point and lose all the users database

Not by design

Hi, I just want to chip in, as i am also looking for an open source car sharing solution. I am a somewhat seasoned developer developer (read: willing and able to chip in) but my question is if you guys have a "strategy" how to handle the sharing vs the pooling. Ie in pooling people share a ride (at the same time). In car sharing, people share a car (using it at different times). Config can probably go a long way, but as there will be quite substantial differences, i am wonder if the main developers are open to this option.
