PropertyWebBuilder is now a standalone Ruby on Rails app (it is no longer a Ruby on Rails engine). It has also been upgraded to use Rails 6 and Ruby 3!
I am currently working on a Rails 7 upgrade which will use the wonderful vite-ruby gem to re-implement the admin panel with vue.js and the quasar framework:

Also, I am currently working on a tool to help with house hunting and would love to get some feedback about it.
Please check it out here and let me know what you think (and if you would like it to be open-sourced):
This project has been created to address a glaring gap in the rails ecosystem: the lack of an open source project for real estate websites.
The result is that WordPress has become the dominant tool for creating real estate websites. This is far from ideal and PropertyWebBuilder seeks to address this.
There was previously a demo hosted on heroku but since they ended the free plan I have had to take it down.
The simplest way to create a website with PropertyWebBuilder is to use Heroku, a trusted service provider. They no longer have the free tier which was a great selling point but are still worth trying out.
Just sign up for Heroku, click the button below and in a few minutes your site will be ready
Here is a video about how to deploy to heroku:
PWB was previously designed to be included as an engine in an existing Ruby on Rails app. This is no longer the case and you can now run it directly as a standalone app.
It can also be installed locally as follows:
git clone https://github.com/etewiah/property_web_builder.git
cd property_web_builder
rails db:create
rails db:migrate
rails pwb:db:seedPropertyWebBuilder runs with Rails '~> 6.0'
PropertyWebBuilder runs with Ruby >= 3.0.0.
These are some features I plan to add over the coming months. If there is something you need which is not on the list, please let me know. I am also interested in knowing which of these features I should prioritize.

I would like PropertyWebBuilder to be available in as many languages as possible so any help with translations will be much appreciated. A basic Spanish version of this document can be found here: https://github.com/etewiah/property_web_builder/blob/master/README_es.md
For instructions on how to add a new language, please see: https://github.com/etewiah/property_web_builder/wiki/Adding-translations-for-a-new-language
