Kranti, > What would be the best way to start working on RAILS ... Do all of these : - read the site: http://rubyonrails.org/ - read THE books, from cover to cover: http://www.pragmaticprogrammer.com/titles/rails/index.html http://pragmaticprogrammer.com/titles/fr_rr/ - read those 2 blogs: http://www.therailsway.com/ http://weblog.jamisbuck.org/ - to host your first projects: http://www.railsplayground.com/ - search the docs with a Firefox bookmark: http://railstips.org/2006/12/16/finding-help-fast I also highly advise this montly screencasts collection : (you will save weeks) http://peepcode.com/ At some point, you''ll need to learn Ruby properly : http://pragmaticprogrammer.com/titles/ruby/index.html http://pragmaticprogrammer.com/titles/fr_eir/index.html http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/rubyckbk/ http://ruby-doc.org/ There is more, but this is a good start.

I recommend David Black''s book, Ruby for Rails, if you''re new to Ruby. I''ve written up a rundown of all the Rails-related books I could find, with some suggestions for who should reach which ones and in which order, at: http://mslater.com/2007/1/4/ruby-on-rails-books And if you want a really quick start and can spend the travel time and money, go to one of the Rails Studios that Mike Clark and Dave Thomas put on (http://pragmaticstudio.com/rails/). You''ll be up to speed in three days.
