After it renames your app, it will change the directory it lives in. To get back into your Rails app:

bundle remove rename

Run this command in your Rails app directory in the terminal:

rails app:template LOCATION="https://railsbytes.com/script/Xg8sNz"

run "bundle add rename"
rails_command "g rename:into #{name}"
# puts "🧹 Removing gem 'rename'"
# run "bundle remove rename"

Thanks Ben - I've forked this to support Rails 6 via a patched rename gem, see Rename Rails App - for Rails v6
