Writers: Dave Thomas

Competent B-Y guide to ruby on rails

Often referred to as 'the rails bible' Dave Thomas takes you though the process of learning ruby on rails in a methodical and practical way. The book is not for absolute beginners but does provide a few basics about the ruby programming language. You are taken straight into creating a full web application which gives you the basics. After this you have a lot of reference material which is really useful. A single book is never going to take you from start to finish but if you have any experience in programming this will take you most of the way there.
