Ruby on Rails, if you didn’t know, is a web development framework written in the Ruby programming language. Many web applications are built with Rails, one of the most notable being Twitter.
To learn Rails, we’ve been tackling the “Build a Simple Ruby on Rails Application” tutorial, from Treehouse. The tutorial is by Jason Seifer and Jim Hoskins, and walks you through how to create a simple version of Facebook, called “Treebook”. It’s very comprehensive and covers…
- how to setup Ruby on Rails,
- customizing the design with Twitter Bootstrap,
- creating an authentication system with Devise,
- creating forms,
- testing your software,
- designing URLs,
- building profile pages, and
- deploying it to the Internet with Heroku.
Jason and Jim have definitely done a great job with this tutorial, and there’s a lot of useful knowledge to be gained from it.
