Rails 8 User Invitations Demo

A simple user invitation system built with Rails 8's native authentication.

What it does

• Existing users can invite new users by email
• Invitees get a secure link to set up their password
• No open registration - invitation-only access
• Uses Rails 8's built-in authentication (no Devise)

Quick Start

git clone https://github.com/sofmeireles/rails8-invitations.git
cd rails8-invitations
bundle install
rails db:setup
bin/dev

Demo login:

• Email: demo@example.com
• Password: password

How it works

1. User sends invitation → creates account with temp password
2. Invitee gets email with secure token link
3. They set their password and account is activated

Built using Rails' generates_token_for for secure, expiring tokens.
