Want to learn all about Ruby on Rails 2.0, the web application framework that
is inspiring developers around the world?
The 2nd edition of this practical hands-on guide for first-time Ruby on Rails
programmers will walk you through installing the required software on a Windows,
Mac or Linux computer. And before you get coding, an entire chapter is devoted
to object oriented programming in Ruby, so you'll be completely confident with
the Ruby language before you begin working with Rails.
The example application that the book builds - a user-generated news web site
- is built upon with each following chapter, and concepts such as sessions,
cookies and basic AJAX usage are gradually introduced. Different aspects of
Rails, such as user authentication, session cookies, and automated testing are
explored with each feature that is added to the application.
The book finishes with chapters on debugging, benchmarking and deployment
to a live web server.
By the end of the book, you'll have built a fully-featured Web 2.0 application
and deployed it to the Web. And all code is up-to-date for Rails 2.0, so you
can begin coding immediately with the latest version of Rails.
