I’ve been searching (the forum and the web) for a while without joy so I
was hoping someone might be able to point me in the right direction.
I am new to OOP and Ruby. I want to start writing some simple web apps
and identified RoR as a good platform for the type of stuff I want to
do. FWIW I have decent HTML and CSS skills and some SQL experience but
little knowledge of much else.
I am in the process of setting up a box to run RoR but am slightly
stumped as where to go next. I don’t have enough coding experience to
jump into the projects I have in mind nor enough familiarity with using
MVC pattern to exploit an OOP language powerfully.
So I am looking for some step-by-step tutorials that walk me through
building an app to get a bit more of a feel for OOP and Ruby. Something
akin to this (a CSS tutorial I found great -
) would be awesome. Can anyone recommend something/somewhere that is
pitched at someone without an OOP background? Budget is an issue so face
to face training is out unfortunately, but I would buy books if you
think they would help me.
Thank you in advance for any advice.
