Ruby Quiz How to Find a Good Ruby on Rails Developer Before I get into the details of finding your next rails developer, I thought a bit of background would be worth sharing. One of the earliest tactical mistakes I made as I developed my web platform at BiggerPockets was to convert the application from PHP to Ruby on Rails. I was fairly skilled in PHP, and what I didn’t know, I could at least hack . . . with Rails, I’m just completely out of touch. I can’t review code from developers to determine the quality of their work. In working with dozens of independent contractor developers over the past 5 years, I’ve had the full gamut of talent: from absolute crap to amazing — astonishingly, many of the crap coders have had fantastic references. So what can someone like me do? Frankly, I think it is somewhat of a roll of the dice for someone to hire a developer when they don’t have a background in that language, but over time you do get better.

4 Reasons Why You Should Learn Ruby As Your First Programming Language | SkilledUp Learning to code has a steep learning curve. You’ll encounter foreign concepts, technical jargon, and difficult choices. One of the very first choices you’ll have to make is which programming language you should start with. Programming languages are similar to spoken languages. Each programming language falls into one or more categories. Ruby is a general purpose programming language created in the 1990s by Yukihiro “Matz” Matsumoto. Ruby is one of the easier languages to learn I remember when I first started learning to code. Here’s what that looks like using C++: Intimidating, isn’t it? Much simpler than the C++ version! Ruby is considered a higher level programming language than C++. When you’re first learning to code, a high-level programming language like Ruby is much easier to use. Learning Ruby is a stepping stone to Ruby on Rails If you’re currently working within the software industry or startup community, chances are you’ve heard of Ruby on Rails (often shortened to just Rails).
10 Free Books for Learning Ruby I recently published a post that discussed 10 ways of learning Ruby, in that list – you can find anything from interactive platforms, to specific walk-throughs, as mentored by some of the Ruby professionals in the community. In that very post, I said that I’d continue gathering up some more resources, and hopefully publish a post that would give you access to some free books to learn Ruby, because we all know how much deeper we can learn from books. You should definitely look into my previous posts about Ruby: I think that’s about it for our introduction, lets take a look at some of the books I was able to find. I don’t guarantee their quality 100%, by they’re the ones that other Ruby community members have encouraged in the past, and I trust their judgement. The Ruby Style Guide It’s a community organized guide for Ruby best practices, and the coding style that’s recommended to use.

Premiers pas avec Ruby Voyons comment installer Ruby sous Windows. Rien de très compliqué, il vous suffit de vous rendre sur la page de Ruby, puis de cliquer sur "Téléchargements", et de télécharger le One-Click Installer pour Windows. Il ne vous reste plus qu'à choisir votre répertoire d'installation, et à valider en attendant la fin de la procédure d'installation. Ruby est livré par défaut avec deux éditeurs : SciTe et FreeRIDE. Pour lancer FreeRIDE (intégralement écrit en Ruby), rendez-vous dans le répertoire d'installation de Ruby, puis dans le répertoire "freeride", et exécutez "run.bat". Je préfère SciTe, mais cela ne dépend que de considérations personnelles. En Ruby, tout est objet. Nous allons apprendre par l'expérience. En utilisant irb, nous allons pouvoir tester la syntaxe de base de Ruby et en visualiser directement le résultat, sans avoir à créer un fichier contenant notre code (un .rb) et à le modifier à chaque fois. II-A. L'invite de commande s'est modifiée. Ici, nous avons écrit "a+b". II-B.

Ruby Hacking Guide Ruby in Twenty Minutes Introduction This is a small Ruby tutorial that should take no more than 20 minutes to complete. It makes the assumption that you already have Ruby installed. (If you do not have Ruby on your computer install it before you get started.) Interactive Ruby Ruby comes with a program that will show the results of any Ruby statements you feed it. Open up IRB (which stands for Interactive Ruby). If you’re using macOS open up Terminal and type irb, then hit enter. irb(main):001:0> Ok, so it’s open. Type this: "Hello World" irb(main):001:0> "Hello World" => "Hello World" Ruby Obeyed You! What just happened? irb(main):002:0> puts "Hello World" Hello World => nil puts is the basic command to print something out in Ruby. Your Free Calculator is Here Already, we have enough to use IRB as a basic calculator: irb(main):003:0> 3+2 => 5 Three plus two. irb(main):004:0> 3*2 => 6 Next, let’s try three squared: irb(main):005:0> 3**2 => 9 In Ruby ** is the way you say “to the power of”. Ok, wait, what was that last one?

Learn Web Development with the Ruby on Rails Tutorial Michael Hartl Contents Foreword My former company (CD Baby) was one of the first to loudly switch to Ruby on Rails, and then even more loudly switch back to PHP (Google me to read about the drama). Though I’ve worked my way through many Rails books, this is the one that finally made me “get” it. The linear narrative is such a great format. Enjoy! Derek Sivers (sivers.org) Founder, CD Baby Acknowledgments The Ruby on Rails Tutorial owes a lot to my previous Rails book, RailsSpace, and hence to my coauthor Aurelius Prochazka. I’d like to acknowledge a long list of Rubyists who have taught and inspired me over the years: David Heinemeier Hansson, Yehuda Katz, Carl Lerche, Jeremy Kemper, Xavier Noria, Ryan Bates, Geoffrey Grosenbach, Peter Cooper, Matt Aimonetti, Gregg Pollack, Wayne E. About the author Michael Hartl is the author of the Ruby on Rails Tutorial, the leading introduction to web development with Ruby on Rails. Copyright and license Welcome to the Ruby on Rails Tutorial.
