I just got an API key for a database I wish to access and want to start building my Rails app. However I dont know where to begin with the API key. Specifically I want to use the brewerydb data and I am building an app where users can find the closest brewery to their location. Can anyone tell me how to get started? I am new to Rails and have never used an API before. I don't know where to begin. What file should I put it in, etc... I know I should probably update the GEMFILE, where else?

Thanks!
