Simplifying Data with Rails Single Table Inheritance

When you build apps with Ruby on Rails, managing a lot of data can be tricky, especially when different parts of your app are similar but not the same.
Rails has a cool feature called Single Table Inheritance (STI) that helps with this. This post explores how to use Rails' single table inheritance, why it's helpful, and other options you might consider if you’re not the biggest fan.

    Thanks for the video. Please add a video where we add fields which are not common to all the models

    I love it thanks for sharing but my question is, do we must have type attribute to use STI? I mean how the model understand type as a Car? Thanks
