Ruby on Rails (RoR)

30 Apr 2011

I’ve been learning some Ruby on Rails recently, it’s been pretty good fun. If you are looking to get started with some RoR, here’s some of the recources i used:

• Try Ruby
• Rails for Zombies
• Rails Tutorial: Learn Rails By Example

I’ve also got two books on the way to use as a reference and help me along:

• Agile Web Development with Rails
• Eloquent Ruby

It’s going pretty well and I’m enjoying it. I’ve got some ideas that prompted me to learn this, as I wanted to use something other than my normal web development process, which  involved stacks of PHP. I do like PHP, but I do occasionally feel the need to learn some new stuff on occasion. I like the way Rails provides a nice framework for everything, this foray into new territory might improve my web design too!
