[Rails] Re: How to Get Started with Ruby on Rails?
I've actually using Docker for development. It makes things really easy to move things around, and is much lighter weight on the resources than a VM.

Hello I would recommend you to install linux on a virtual machine.The following link is a good tutorial which will cover the basics http://guides.rubyonrails.org/getting_started.html .

I would strongly recommend www.tryruby.org to get acquainted with ruby on rails.

The easiest way is to sign up for a free account on c9.io. You get 2 workspaces and everything is configured for you to start working on ruby on rails projects. (and you can access it anywhere.) Try some free udemy rails courses. On Thursday, August 25, 2016 at 12:46:26 PM UTC-4, Faraz Mirza wrote: > > Hey Guys! > > I am a Computer Science student.

[Rails] Re: How to Get Started with Ruby on Rails?
Linux or Mac are the way to go for almost any non-windows centric development. Vagrant or Virtual Box work really well and more recently I've started using Docker which is awesome. I can't believe that people say not to use an IDE, that is like saying that writing documents would best be done with a pen and paper! IntelliJ has a great tool in their product and there is a Rails focussed stripped down version called RubyMine. It has context-sensitive completion, all kinds of style and formatting rules, built-in debugger support, model dependency maps, etc, etc. It also supports very simple refactoring of your code, extracting methods, etc. Basically, it is a proper tool for development if you are doing anything complicated. Certainly, you don't need to use *this* tool, but using a tool that can help you code faster and refactor with fewer mistakes is a huge time saver. There are many online tutorials for learning rails as well as paid courses (I'm a mentor for one of them). But the bottom line about coding is you ONLY learn it by doing stuff. So implement your own version of Yelp or some similar site if you don't have a project in mind. Build it and you will learn. Tutorials are helpful when you are trying to solve that problem in your project. So build stuff. Good luck, Brendon.

I agree with other suggestions, go get a Linux VM or just use Cloud9 first. And, if you have access to Lynda.com. Ruby On Rail 4 Essential Training is really great for beginners. I learned RoR from this Lynda.com course. Remember to do every steps the instructor did yourself, it's the most import step!

[Rails] Re: How to Get Started with Ruby on Rails?
Not long ago I had the same question. What I recommend is Michael Hartl´s tutorial: https://www.railstutorial.org/ You get a Cloud 9 development environment with it, and it's all for free!
