Hey Che, It''s mostly development and support discussion here. You might want to check out these (I''ve found them very useful when learning) http://guides.rails.info/ (currently being expanded by community contributions) http://railscasts.com/ (lots of short, and helpful screencasts) http://envycasts.com/ (slightly indepth) http://www.pragprog.com/screencasts/v-rbar/everyday-active-record (slightly indepth) http://www.pragprog.com/titles/rails3/agile-web-development-with-rails-third-edition (beta but still very helpful) http://www.buildingwebapps.com/learningrails (check the screencasts) http://apidock.com/rails (I prefer ApiDock over http://api.rubyonrails.org/ because of the search and user comments, but they both have the same documentation I''ve found) http://www.tutorialspoint.com/ruby-on-rails-2.1/rails-preliminary.htm Regards Kieran On Thu, Sep 18, 2008 at 1:30 PM, cherrian harada <cchin19-Re5JQEeQqe8AvxtiuMwx3w@public.gmane.org> wrote:> Hi, > I want to learn to use ROR but I have 0% experience.

I found the members of this group to be very helpful indeed! I like this book: Agile Web Development with Rails, Third Edition http://pragprog.com/titles/rails3/agile-web-development-with-rails-third-edition It takes you step-by-step in creating your own Pragmatic Bookshelf application, explaining why things work as you go. The final version isn''t out yet but the Beta is proper. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

Back in 2006 when Rails was just getting noticed, I learned using that same book First edition. Good choice. What other languages/frameworks do you have experience with? I find that can help in telling people how to approach Rails. Also are you a Mac or PC guy? This helps too.

This book starts from scratch. It teaches you those basic principles in Ruby. http://pragprog.com/titles/fr_ltp/learn-to-program I didn''t learn to program from this book, but I thoroughly enjoyed reading it.

Che, Here is nice way to just try out Ruby with zero overhead. No need to install Ruby on your machine or do anything just visit this web site and try Ruby right in your browsers. http://tryruby.hobix.com/ This will at least give you a feel for whether you really want to pursue this coding thing further. cherrian harada wrote:> I have 0% experience but I want to learn...

Hi, Thank you for the links below. I ''ve already signed up for the course on RoR... I think that will be a big help in understanding RoR. Before starting the course, I want to get familiar with ruby language. I went to ruby-lang.organd created a account. I even tried to dowload it by using the One Step installer, but for some reason it does not look as if it was installed on my PC... Any recommendations, where to go for learning or just getting familiar with Ruby Langage?
