<% end %>

route.rb

Rails.application.routes.draw do


 devise_for :users, controllers: { registrations: 'users/registrations' }

  resources :users 

  root 'home#index'
end

Answer 1

Please remove before_action :authenticate_user! from your application_controller

Add like this in home_controller

before_action :authenticate_user!, except: [:index]

or

before_action :authenticate_user!, only: ["list all actions except index"]

Answer 2

You can add before_action :authenticate_user! to your application controller if you want to manage authentication in every controller that inherits from ApplicationController.

Then, in your individual controllers, where you don't need a user to be authenticated, you can use skip_before_action :authenticate_user! and use only: or except: to skip authentication on those actions.

For instance, to skip user authentication on your home_controller index action, you can use skip_before_action :authenticate_user!, only: %i[index] in your home_controller.rb file.
