Last year I started playing around with using memoized private helper methods in my controllers instead of the traditional instance variable assigns we see in RoR controllers. Here's an example:

class PostsController < ApplicationController
  helper_method :new_post, :post, :posts
  
  def new; end
  def show; end
  def edit; end
 def index; end

// Automatically instantiates views based on the `role` attribute.

• Ok, first generate a new rails app using this format:
  • rails new app_name
  • rails new amit_test_blog
• Ok, next sketch out your models.
  • We're going to have two models for this blog: User and Post
  • One users can have many posts and many posts can belong to one users
  • Figure out the fields in each model.
  • Users will have these: field:type
