Hey this looks impressive. Something I can use to end arguments as well where can I deliver feedback once I start using it? Cheers

Does this exist for general opinions? Looks awesome overall.

I think a few have tried but nothing major I don't think. I recall a site called Opinsy a year or so back.

My initial thoughts we're creating it on a subject I was passionate about, as I personally wouldn't go on a generalist site to argue my opinion's about chalk then about cheese.

But the concept can be applied to anything of course.

I'm learning Rubymotion myself. Can you list out the different technologies/gems used in this? RMQ, teacup, etc...?

This looks really nice, btw.

This looks great! I'm in the process of building my first iOS app with Rubymotion. May I ask where you got all the awesome looking icons and whether you used RMQ? Awesome work!

Thanks! I'm using RMQ for the front end and CDQ (also created from infinitered) for the Models and backend syncing.

The icons are from https://flaticons.co/

Thank you.

I bought Rubymotion in November and it took me a month or two testing out different gems etc.

I ended up using RMQ, CDQ, Restkit, formotion, bits of bubblewrap
