his 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 then jumps
into an introduction to the
Ruby programming syntax.
The application that the
book builds, a
user-generated news Website,
is added upon chapter by
chapter, and concepts such
as user authentication,
sessions, cookies and basic
AJAX usage are gradually
introduced. The book
finishes of with chapters on
reusable code, debugging,
and deployment on a live web
server. By the end of the
book you'll have a solid
grasp of Ruby on Rails
development and its
practical applications in
the real-world.
