Order_query

Overview

The OrderQuery gem offers a powerful solution for efficient navigation through records using keyset pagination. Designed to enhance user experience during operations such as infinite scrolling or simple record navigation, this tool leverages ordering based on specific attributes to streamline access to data. By implementing OrderQuery in your model, you can easily create scopes and class methods that dictate the order of results, ultimately enhancing the way your application interacts with database records.

The functionality provided by OrderQuery extends far beyond basic ordering. With its advanced features, developers can create dynamic queries that adapt based on user interactions or application needs, making it an essential tool for any Ruby on Rails project aiming to optimize data handling.
