Advanced Usages of Devise for Rails
The first step is to install the gem with bundle add authtrail. Additionally, since you'll be storing user-identifiable information such as emails and IP addresses in your app database, it's highly recommended that you encrypt this data in production using a combination of Lockbox and Blindindex gems.

Searching/Querying with Active Record Encryption
Your app queries an encrypted ActiveStash index, which says what rows in your existing database should be retrieved. It works with all the popular application-level encryption plugins for ActiveRecord, including ActiveRecord Encryption, and Lockbox.

Life monitoring with org mode and telegram chat bot
Content is encrypted using https://github.com/ankane/lockbox default setup I've been considering adding optional end-to-end encryption as well, but am a bit afraid people might lose access to content forever if they lose access to keys.

Database Views & Rails Active Record: defining new Model classes out of views
To model our Deliverable class, we will need a view. We will use the popular scenic gem, which provides some useful generators for creating views with their respective migrations, and utilities to handle views versioning.

Most performant way to build an analytics dashboard from a relational database backend that only stores numeric values, where the data the end-user sees is "categorized" into numeric brackets (e.g. 60-79 = Med, 80-100 = High, etc)
If the data doesn't need to be close to real-time, and if your DB can handle a bit of load, I'd use a "batch" approach. To do this, I'd create a materialized view in your relational DB that you'd then refresh periodically. The easiest way to do this is with the `scenic` gem. Once you've done this, you can simply create a new model and set the `table_name` to the name of the materialized view, and then treat it as a regular model.

Logidze 1.0, postgres-specific alternative to eg paper_trail for recording ActiveRecord change history
TIL about fx gem for storing triggers in schema.rb. That makes me so happy because scenic gem for creating database views is one of my favorites. Postgres is very powerful and it's great to see tools for exposing that through Rails.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing lockbox and Scenic you can also consider the following projects:
attr_encrypted - Generates attr_accessors that encrypt and decrypt attributes
Lol DBA - lol_dba is a small package of rake tasks that scan your application models and displays a list of columns that probably should be indexed. Also, it can generate .sql migration scripts.
blind_index - Securely search encrypted database fields
PgHero - A performance dashboard for Postgres
strong_migrations - Catch unsafe migrations in development
SecondBase - Seamless second database integration for Rails.
rails_best_practices - a code metric tool for rails projects
