Building a Real Messenger App with Rails 6 and Action Cable (Update!) | Ruby on Rails Projects

In this short episode, we're going to fix a small issue with our ActionCable messenger app. We'll make use of Ruby on Rails' cool remote Javascript feature to clear and re-enable the chat box once a user submits a message.

Action Cable is an awesome tool that was introduced to Rails in version 5. It makes it a lot easier to set up web socket connections and push real-time events to connected users.
