In this episode, we explore session hijacking and an approach that we can take to limit the risk. There are some user experience and functionality caveats to this approach so they must be taken into consideration as well.

Validation of files that are uploaded can provide a better user experience as it sets the expectations of what kinds of files, their sizes and if they're even required. In this episode, we'll look at creating different types of validators for Active Storage.

In this episode, we take a new approach to the python service that our Rails background jobs will be calling. This is a more stable and thread safe approach and more simple to implement. We'll look at creating a Text to Image generation service that our Rails application will interact with.

The View Transition API makes it easy to change the DOM in a single step, while creating an animated transition between the two states. Currently, it's available in Chrome 111 and Microsoft Edge. In this episode, we'll create a stimulus controller to interact with this new UX.

In this episode, we look at setting up a Rails 7 API (only) application and create our own authentication solution. We'll also write the tests around the different controller endpoints that we create to make sure that we have good test coverage and functionality.
