Phil, To create CRUD application you can use Rails scaffolding which saves your most of the time instead of coding same stuff yourself. Of-course its a better approach when something is already build why would you waste your time on it unless you have to make it more customizable?
Bootstrap basically helps to improve your look & feel. Scaffold also gives you basic css style but you can skip to generate stylesheet while generating scaffold and integrate bootstrap. Assuming you have integrated bootstrap already. To generate scaffold and use bootstrap with it, commands would be: *rails g scaffold Post title:string description:text * *--skip-stylesheets rake db:migraterails g bootstrap:themed Posts* Hope this is what you were looking for?
