"Questions" is a web application inspired by "Quora" built using Ruby on Rails and React/Redux. It allows users to ask questions and get answers as well as answer the questions of others.

I used React.JS and Redux to build responsive App. Used Rails because it has friendly convention that make it easier to build an App. It supports full CRUD operations

Answer form

Under the question there is a list of answers sorted by answer date/time in descending order. Each answer can be upvoted/downvoted and has comments functionality.

Each question, answer, comment, message has author information and link to author profile page. Profile page renders detailed user information and has compose private message functionality.

Also user page allows to check user's public statistics - user's asked questions and user's answers.

Each user has access to personal profile page which has much more options than other profile pages. It has Edit user functionality, extended statistics and rendering messages functionality.

In addition to regular user profile page's statistics (lists of questions and answers) personal profile has also lists of followed authors and watched questions.

After click on the message in the list message content with message details will be rendered. Any message may be deleted by receiver or sender. If it's deleted by receiver it won't be rendered in receiver's inbox anymore, but still be rendered in sender's outbox. The same happens when sender deletes the message - it will be deleted from outbox only, not from receiver's inbox.

Each message can be replied.
