So I finally got Git and Gedit setup properly. How should I start? I got a basic repository on git all set up to. How should I start? How should I look at making my first site? Does it have to be perfect? Should I be forking someone else project and seeing what to do with it or what? Thank you all for helping me in previous post. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

First get a copy of Agile Web Development with Rails - the latest online ebook covers rails 3.1, the printed ones don''t yet. That''s THE primer.

On Sat, Nov 19, 2011 at 15:44, Mathew S. <lists-fsXkhYbjdPsEEoCn2XhGlw@public.gmane.org> wrote:> How should I start?Dheeraj already recommended "Agile Web Development with Rails". That''s one good choice. Another is Michael Hartl''s "Ruby on Rails Tutorial: Learn Rails by Example", also available for free as a web site (at http://ruby.railstutorial.org/ruby-on-rails-tutorial-book/). There are many others. One important point is to make sure it teaches Ruby of at least version 1.9.2, and Rails of at least version 3.1. There are significant differences from prior versions, but learning the earlier ones can wait, possibly forever. Also check out the Rails Guides, available at http://guides.rubyonrails.org/. Once you''ve read all that, and done the exercises, think up some simple projects *you* want to do. Then figure out how to do it. Put it up on Heroku. Share the code on Github. Ask for feedback.> Does it have to be perfect?Absolutely not. Nothing is perfect. Do your best, and if you get stuck, ask us for advice.> Should I be forking someone else project and seeing what to do with it > or what?That''s one way to go. Once you''re at least somewhat confident of your skills, you can even fork a popular open source project, take a look at the "issues", and see what you can fix. -Dave -- LOOKING FOR WORK!
