Build Your Own Ruby On Rails Web Applications
Want to learn all about Ruby on Rails, the web application
framework that is inspiring developers around the world?
This practical hands-on guide for first-time Ruby on Rails
programmers will walk you through installing the required
software on a Windows, Mac or Linux computer. And before you
get coding, an entire chapter
is devoted to object oriented
programming in Ruby, so you'll be completely confident with
the Ruby language before you begin working with Rails.
The example application that the book builds - a
user-generated news web site - is built upon with each
following chapter, and concepts such as sessions, cookies
and basic AJAX usage are gradually introduced. Different
aspects of Rails, such as ActiveRecord, migrations and
automated testing are explored with each feature that is
added to the application.
The book finishes with chapters on debugging, benchmarking
and deployment to a live web server.
By the end of the book, you'll have built a fully-featured
Web 2.0 application and deployed it to the Web. And all code
is up-to-date for Rails 1.2, so you can begin coding
immediately with the latest version of Rails.
