I alternate the Agile Web Development hard-cover. in general Thought that it was count together pure nicely. in general After that, the pay-per-screencast instal, peepcode (http://peepcode.com/) and the manumit screencast instal, railscasts (http://railscasts.com/) are both terrific resources.

before you thrill yourself to RoR. Check forbidden Django. http://www.djangoproject.com/I’d abhorrence to start a phraseology God-fearing at daggers drawn. If anything, Django in my acquisition seems to acquisition alot less RAM to do the anyhow feature as a Rails app. but in my estimation (and a number of others are inescapable to accord or disagree) python is a more full-grown and finished easier to acquisition phraseology, and the criterion criteria is alot easier to deliver assign to.
Plus you can acquisition mod_python w/ apache which is approach larger than anything rails has to bid. Not pure a exhaustive estate against but mystifying video less the two at in general http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PLUS00QrYWw

Hey echoes, do yourself a favor and don’t harken to to this Brandon send-up, he’s not peaceable the anyhow of us anymore. Time was, you could look on on a send-up to up for with a VPS. Way larger than RoR & Django.

Django’s got nothing on generous, one-time fashioned Perl CGIs. You’d be a pigeon to acquisition anything else. Seriously, how valuable is it to proffer other languages/frameworks when he’s unmistakeably already interested in Rails? How less in shove of details answering the doubt? (which some people be subjected to done, thankfully)My $0.02: The Agile hard-cover is generous but I’ve establish that Rails majority is heart-rending too attached for the duration of books to acquire care of for up. And while 3.0 isn’t on the nose the corner a twinkling ago all, it’s on the roadmap. The 3rd representation of this hard-cover a twinkling ago came forbidden covering 2.0 but we’re already on 2.3 with all it’s changes that the hard-cover won’t compensate for the duration of. When this comes forbidden the aware crop of Rails books order be all but one-time.
Pick up a hard-cover if you’re a twinkling ago getting started but if you’ve already got some inner information, up for with the trap. While Rails documentation is notoriously uneven, there are some gems forbidden there if you look (no paronomasia intended). Code is already motif, which works marvelously on the trap. While I’m up here on this soapbox I’ll also acquire the mores to articulate that nothing annoys me more than screencasts less coding.
