Rails db:prepare command follows these steps:
1. It first attempts to run db:migrate to apply any pending migrations. This step ensures that the database schema is up to date with the latest changes defined in your migration files.
2. If the database does not exist, it falls back to db:setup to create the database, load the schema, and seed it with initial data. This step is crucial for setting up a new database or ensuring that an existing database is correctly initialized.
In summary, rails db:prepare is a powerful command for ensuring your database is ready for use in your Rails application

If using Podman (instead of Docker for Mac) and trivy for image scanning, trivy expects DOCKER_HOST env variable to be setup for scanning local images and fails unless DOCKER_HOST is pointing to the podman socket.

This array is provided by Ruby's Date class, making it convenient for developers to access the names of the days without manually typing them out.

While exploring a lengthy code file, we often need to see the available properties and methods without diving into their implementation. In VS Code, this is quite easy with "Fold Level 1" functionality. This feature collapses the code to display only the top-level structures, which makes it easier to understand the file's architecture without getting into the details.

To Use Fold Level 1:

1. Open Command Palette: Ctrl+Shift+P (Windows) or Cmd+Shift+P (macOS).
2. Select Fold Level 1: Now, only the main parts of our code will be visible.
