2. Create a new Rails application:
– Open your terminal and navigate to the desired directory.
– Run the command `rails new social_networking_site` to create a new Rails application.

3. Set up the database:
– Open the `config/database.yml` file and configure your database settings.
– Run the command `rails db:create` to create the database.

4. Generate the necessary models and migrations:
– Run the command `rails generate model User name:string email:string password_digest:string` to create a User model.
– Run the command `rails generate model Post content:text user:references` to create a Post model.
– Run the command `rails generate model Comment content:text user:references post:references` to create a Comment model.
– Run the command `rails generate model Friendship user:references friend:references` to create a Friendship model.

5. Run the database migrations:
– Run the command `rails db:migrate` to apply the generated migrations.

6. Set up the associations between models:
– Open the model files (`app/models/user.rb`, `app/models/post.rb`, `app/models/comment.rb`, `app/models/friendship.rb`) and define the associations between them.

7. Create the necessary controllers and views:

– Implement the logic for creating, updating, and deleting records in the database.
– Implement the necessary validations and authentication.

10. Style your application:
– Use CSS frameworks like Bootstrap or Tailwind CSS to style your application.
– Customize the views and layouts to match your desired design.

11. Test your application:
