Ruby on Rails is an open source web application framework written in Ruby that closely follows the Model View Controller (MVC) architecture. It strives for simplicity, allowing real-world applications to be developed in less code than other frameworks and with a minimum of configuration. One of Rails' guiding principles is "Don't Repeat Yourself".

Ruby On Rails has been installed. Members who are trying it for the first time are requested to first research on the subject and then try experimenting

If you have any more questions or doubts then you can put them up here in this topic

Well as usual I have come to help out with tutorials and other bits of info for Ruby on Rails programming.

Main Site

ROR Wiki

Tutorials

Site 1

Site 2

Site 4

That should be enough to make your brain hurt so enjoy this wonderful source of info, and maybe we will get our first Ruby on Rails account .

Thanks a lot Michael,

I guess all those tutorials you found will help our members, if you have any advice as to what the members should not do while learning this software will also be appreciated.

Hey guys, thank me for requesting it to be installed

Seriously though, I'll probably take a look at those tuts, because Ruby on Rails is more different than I thought than just using Ruby.

I don't use that. I will take a look at those tutorials and make use out of them. Like, I don't want to read those links now, so what does Ruby on Rails do? Thanks!~

I agree. I don't know what ROR really does or allows you to do... anyone can explain it in an easy way? I see in the site that there are some templates or scripts for e-commerce, weblogs, etc. but what's really new about ROR?

[OpaQue]

It helps you make your site quickly. You can get many good tutorials and even video presentations online :-)

[Sprnknwn]

Ok, so it's not a language but something that makes programming easier I guess.

[reconraiders]

I have a quick question. I don't know anything about Ruby or Ruby on Rails. I was wondering what extension do these ruby files have? exe? html? etc.

[velma]

Hi reconraiders,

I do not think that there are extensions on these files. You can research on this doubt of yours by viewing Michael's tutorials

Feel free to update this topic if you have any more doubts
