Hi everyone, We went live with the public alpha of our online Ruby training program, RubyMonk (http://rubymonk.com) last night. We are on the Hacker News (http://news.ycombinator.com/) front page and would really appreciate your upvotes. In just 90 minutes after the launch last night, 698 people solved at least one exercise, with a total of 8404 exercises solved! Here are some of the interesting things about RubyMonk: * Has book style content built around real code that you get to write * Tests - all the code that you write has tests run against it (so you get used to Red/Green early on) * Problems and Exercises - learn ruby by studying content in a linear manner, or by solving problems that cut across multiple chapters It's early days yet, and much of the workflow is rather rough, but we'd greatly appreciate your feedback so we can make it better. Thanks, Sidu. http://c42.in http://sidu.in PS: We are hiring!
