Railsdevs is the reverse job board for Rails developers. As a Ruby on Rails developer you can sign up and create your profile there for free.

Once you complete your profile, it is displayed on the site’s feed to people interested in hiring a Rails developer. Railsdevs is written in Ruby on Rails and is owned by Joe Masilotti and its source code is hosted in a Github repository.

Back in September 2022, I was reading the issues tab of this repo, and I found a feature request made by Joe I thought I could send a PR to implement it. This was the feature request description:

A PR addressing this issue should:

  1. Link to "Impersonate" from each user in /admin/users

  2. Remove the views and links for /admin/impersonate

The link

The PR linked on this article shows the implementation to impersonate registered users in the website as an administrator.

While working on the PR, I received some feedback from Joe, because some tests in CI got broken (unused translations) and some variable names were not chosen appropriately.
