Top 12 Ruby on Rails Tutorials

A former student asked me a few days ago how I learned Ruby on Rails. The answer was that I simply read alot of great tutorials. So in the spirit of sharing, here are the 12 tutorials that I found most useful:

  1. Rolling with Ruby on Rails - Curtis Hibbs of ONLamp.com offers his first excellent introduction to Ruby on Rails. This is the article that got me really excited about RoR.
  2. Rolling with Ruby on Rails, Part 2 - The sequel to Curtis Hibbs excellent series of articles.
  3. Four Days on Rails (PDF) - a great tutorial that is broken down into simple tasks that you can do over a four day period. To be quite honest, this tutorial only takes about 2 hours, but nonetheless it is very well organized!
  4. Really Getting Started in Rails - Amy Hoy has a great tutorial that not only covers RoR, but also introduces the reader to many of the basic concepts of the very cool Ruby scripting language.
  5. Tutorial in Ruby on Rails - is a basic tutorial aimed at newbies.
  6. Fast-track your Web apps with Ruby on Rails - IBM jumps into the sandbox with an excellent (as usual) tutorial to get you on your feet fast.
  7. Getting Your Feet Wet With Ruby on Rails - Talking about getting on your feet fast, this one from Webmonkey promises to get them wet too!
  8. How to make a todo list program with Rails - Another excellent introductory tutorial that actually helps you build something useful!
  9. Ajax on Rails - Curtis Hibbs offers part 3 of his look at RoR
  10. Many to Many Tutorial for Rails (PDF) - is a nice document that begins to delve into some of the more complex parts of web application programming, but in fine Ruby on Rails manner, it’s really not too complicated!
  11. Distributing Rails Applications - A Tutorial - So now you’ve built your RoR application, how to you push it to a production server? This tutorial covers the bases.
  12. Installing Ruby on Rails with Lighttpd and MySQL on Fedora Core 4 - and of course this list wouldn’t be complete without a shameless bit of self-promotion, this tutorial promises what it says. Other install tutorials can be found here, here and here!

Some great book recommendations are:

Ajax on Rails The Rails Way (Addison-Wesley Professional Ruby Series) Agile Web Development with Rails, 2nd Edition RESTful Web Services RailsSpace: Building a Social Networking Website with Ruby on Rails (Addison-Wesley Professional Ruby Series)Rails Cookbook (Cookbooks (O'Reilly)) Pro Active Record: Databases with Ruby and Rails (Pro) Prototype and Scriptaculous in Action [Ajax] Beginning Ruby on Rails E-Commerce: From Novice to Professional (Rails) Practical JRuby on Rails Web 2.0 Projects: Bringing Ruby on Rails to Java Ruby Cookbook (Cookbooks (O'Reilly))

    I am the author of the Todo List tutorial, and I just want to warn everyone that it is quite old, it was written for Rails 0.9, and many people are having problems with it. Since I don’t feel like updating it, I strongly recommend looking at other tutorials before jumping into mine.

    […] Ruby on Rails, is the super productive new way to develop web applications. Ruby is a pure object-oriented programming language with a super clean syntax that makes programming elegant and fun. Rails is an open source Ruby framework for developing database-backed web applications. So what’s the special of Rails. What would you think if I told you that you could develop a web application at least ten times faster with Rails than you could with a typical Java framework? You can–without making any sacrifices in the quality of your application! Part of the answer is in the Ruby programming language. Many things that are very simple to do in Ruby are not even possible in most other languages. Rails takes full advantage of this. The rest of the answer is in two of Rail’s guiding principles: less software and convention over configuration. The Ruby community continues revolutionizing the marketing of scripting languages. The beauty of Ruby is found in its balance between simplicity and power. Try out Ruby in your web browser. Looking to learn about Ruby on Rails ?

    […] O problema é que em algum ponto sua aplicação pode necessitar crescer e incluir uma lógica mais complicada do negócio. Você pode escrever aplicações grandes em PHP, e há muitos programadores talentosos que fazem isso, mas elas tornam-se rapidamente mais difíceis de manusear. Estas mesmas grandes aplicações quando escritas usando o Ruby on Rails, elas seriam mais fáceis de compreender e manter, permitindo que mais características sejam adicionadas e em menos tempo. Decidir-se onde usar Rails em vez de PHP é difícil porque não é a mesma coisa para nenhum dos dois programadores web. O melhor método para decidir se deve usar o Rails é analisar qual será o tamanho do esforço necessário para montar a aplicação web. Minha suposição é que você escolherá o Rails como opção até para as tarefas mais triviais. Como eu começo no Rails? O site oficial do Ruby on Rails (em inglês) é http://www.rubyonrails.org/. Lá você encontrará documentação, o suporte da comunidade, downloads, e as instruções de instalação. Há uns screencasts e filmes, se você preferir dar uma olhada nas aplicações do Rails desenvolvidas sobre ele. As instruções de instalação são consideravelmente simples. Mas se ocorrerem problemas, pode ser difícil de você mesmo resolver. Felizmente, uma busca na web pelo erro específico você pode teve tipicamente retorna um punhado de respostas de outras pessoas que tiveram o mesmo problema.   Para usuários de Windows, uma alternativa disponível mais confiável é o projeto Instant Rails. Com o Instant Rails você faz um download e descompacta o volume em uma pasta de sua escolha. Você não tem que rodar um programa de instalação nem mudar as configurações do Windows, além de você poder facilmente movê-lo ou excluí-lo. A melhor parte é que ele já vem com Ruby, Ruby on Rails, o web server Apache, e o banco de dados MySQL, tudo pré-configurado para funcionar usando um pequeno aplicativo do Windows que serve como um painel de controle. É por esta simplicidade em iniciar o uso do Rails que recomendo a todos que, pelo menos, o analisem melhor. Os usuários do MacOS X podem usar um projeto similar ao Instant Rails chamado Locomotive . Os usuários de Linux terão que sofrer com a instalação manual, embora eu saiba que esta é a maneira que nós mais gostamos Como eu começo a usar o Rails? Quando você começa a estudar o Rails, você tem sorte, porque não falta boa documentação a respeito. Comece navegando nas páginas de documentação no site oficial do Ruby on Rails. Além dos links para tutoriais, você encontrará referências a livros, how to’s, trechos de código, e FAQ. Para algo um pouco diferente, veja também como criar um weblog  em 15 minutos na seção screencasts. É narrado pelo criador do Rails, David Heinemeier Hansson. Ah, e você encontrará também a documentação oficial do Rails caso que você queira ler diretamente. Você pode também navegar através desta lista dos 12 melhores tutoriais para encontrar algo de acordo com suas necessidades.   […]

    A former student asked me a few days ago how I learned Ruby on Rails. The answer was that I simply read alot of great tutorials. So in the spirit of sharing, here are the 12 tutorials that I found most useful:

    […] You can imagine, I’d really like to find some time for development — for example for this site’s next version. There are hundreds of projects I’d like to push further, but it is nearly impossible. There’s never enough time to do so. What am I going to do about it? There’s something called gradualistic policy. I think that’s the right term to describe what I’m doing right now. My online projects tend to go on slowly. But they do go on and my Ruby on Rails skills are getting better every time I play around with it. I’ve got the book Agile Web Development with Rails and pretty much built half of an online shop system with its help. Tomorrow I’m going to work my way through Jim Rutherford’s 12 Top Ruby on Rails Tutorials. […]

    The Onlamp ‘Curtis Hibbs’ article is total rubbish. Even I could tell ‘tho I was a rails newbie. It casts doubt on all your subsequent choices. Now that you are, presumably, quite advanced in Rails go back to that article and the trouble should be quite visible.

    It is very important for readers of this page to realize most of the tutorials linked to above are VERY old. Early 2005 in cases. Rails has changed a great deal since then and some of the advice given, while good at the time, is now significantly dated, or just plain wrong.
