Just read through https://guides.rubyonrails.org/ Unlike the sibling comment I suggest staying away from additional gems as much as possible especially if you're a beginner. Do things the officially blessed Rails way and you will run into the least amount of problems. All gems that try to 'fix' something in Rails will often have downsides of their own and can cause hard to debug issues in corner cases.



I can see where you're coming from, but I wouldn't advise rolling your own authentication and/or authorization systems, especially as a noob.


I still don't understand why there isn't a Rails' way for authentication and/or authorization systems.
