Cool things we've discovered

• We wanted to get random data from our database - we knew we could call our whole database and then use math.random to get a random one, but the challenge was to just query the database for a random entry. We managed to do this by using ORDER BY RANDOM() LIMIT 1

• To output raw HTML use {{{}}}, which is how {{{body}}} works. Eg. {{{tarot.image}}} will render content of tarot.image as html (in our case SVG)

• TEXT in Postgres is like VARCHAR but without limiting length

• Before you play with SVG, read on them

• How to use Whimsical

  • to create flows

• to wireframe
