    Hi everyone, and 0:09
    welcome to creating a Twitter clone using Ruby on Rails version 8. 0:10
    The end of this course, you will have the knowledge on how to create an application 0:13
    like Twitter using Rails. 0:17
    This course is suitable for both PC and Mac users, so 0:18
    you don't have to worry about that. 0:21
    We are using Rails 8 in this course, 0:23
    which has some major advantages to all the previous versions. 0:25
    The first one is Redis-free caching. 0:28
    Redis 8 has completely reimagined how caching works, you no longer need Redis 0:30
    for caching by default thanks to the new built in, file-based caching system. 0:34
    It's faster, simpler to configure, and reduces deployment costs. 0:37
    This change makes Rails apps that would need Redis cheaper to deploy, 0:41
    which is extremely important. 0:44
    The next major change is the Kamal deployment tool. 0:46
    Rails 8 introduces Kamal, a sleek and 0:48
    modern deployment tool that makes shipping your app to production ridiculously easy. 0:50
    Whether you're deploying to cloud providers, Docker containers, 0:53
    or bare metal servers, Kamal handles it all with a few simple commands. 0:56
    We'll be using Kamal to deploy our Twitter clone at the end of the course. 0:59
    And the third major change is the built in authentication generator. 1:02
    Say goodbye to setting up device or 1:05
    rolling your own authentication from scratch. 1:07
    Rails 8 comes with a new built in authentication generator. 1:09
    We'll use it to set up user accounts and login, logout functionality. 1:12
    So let's get started and install Ruby on Rails 8. 1:15
