Is a controller called "home" sort of a standard or best practice?
Is it pretty much a standard, best practice or just a good idea to create a
controller called "home" and put, say, my web sites home page
(''index.html.erb'') there??

Well, the name of the controller can differ, but yes, that''s how most apps render their homepage. -- Dheeraj Kumar On Monday 21 January 2013 at 12:09 AM, Don Schenck wrote:> Is it pretty much a standard, best practice or just a good idea to create a controller called "home" and put, say, my web sites home page (''index.html.erb'') there?? > > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group. > To post to this group, send email to rubyonrails-talk-/JYPxA39Uh5TLH3MbocFFw@public.gmane.org (mailto:rubyonrails-talk-/JYPxA39Uh5TLH3MbocFFw@public.gmane.org). > To unsubscribe from this group, send email to rubyonrails-talk+unsubscribe-/JYPxA39Uh5TLH3MbocFFw@public.gmane.org (mailto:rubyonrails-talk+unsubscribe-/JYPxA39Uh5TLH3MbocFFw@public.gmane.org). > To view this discussion on the web visit https://groups.google.com/d/msg/rubyonrails-talk/-/8v5wrCaLGyMJ. > For more options, visit https://groups.google.com/groups/opt_out. > >-- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

It is common practice to have SOME kind of controller, just because you need a controller (unless the page is completely static), to hold common top-level pages like Home, About, Terms & Conditions, Privacy Policy, "Thanks for visiting, come back soon" (i.e., you just logged out), etc. etc. etc. -Dave -- Dave Aronson, the T.
