A former student asked me a few days ago how I learned Ruby on Rails. The
answer was that I simply read alot of great tutorials. So in the spirit of
sharing, here are the 12 tutorials that I found most useful:
- Rolling
with Ruby on Rails - Curtis Hibbs of ONLamp.com offers his first excellent
introduction to Ruby on Rails. This is the article that got me really excited
about RoR. - Rolling
with Ruby on Rails, Part 2 - The sequel to Curtis Hibbs excellent series of
articles. - Four Days on Rails (PDF) - a great
tutorial that is broken down into simple tasks that you can do over a four day
period. To be quite honest, this tutorial only takes about 2 hours, but
nonetheless it is very well organized! - Really
Getting Started in Rails - Amy Hoy has a great tutorial that not only covers
RoR, but also introduces the reader to many of the basic concepts of the very
cool Ruby scripting language. - Tutorial in Ruby
on Rails - is a basic tutorial aimed at newbies. - Fast-track
your Web apps with Ruby on Rails - IBM jumps into the sandbox with an
excellent (as usual) tutorial to get you on your feet fast. - Getting
Your Feet Wet With Ruby on Rails - Talking about getting on your feet fast,
this one from Webmonkey promises to get them wet too! - How to
make a todo list program with Rails - Another excellent introductory
tutorial that actually helps you build something useful! - Ajax
on Rails - Curtis Hibbs offers part 3 of his look at RoR - Many
to Many Tutorial for Rails (PDF) - is a nice document that begins to delve
into some of the more complex parts of web application programming, but in fine
Ruby on Rails manner, it’s really not too complicated! - Distributing
Rails Applications - A Tutorial - So now you’ve built your RoR application,
how to you push it to a production server? This tutorial covers the bases. - Installing Ruby on
Rails with Lighttpd and MySQL on Fedora Core 4 - and of course this list
wouldn’t be complete without a shameless bit of self-promotion, this tutorial
promises what it says. Other install tutorials can be found here, here and here!
Happy Rails developing and if you have any other tutorials that you’d like to
share, please leave them in the comments!
