Work right through a good tutorial such as railstutorial.org, which is free to use online.

Don't use Windows for development. Use Linux (eg Ubuntu) or Mac.

Install ruby and rails using rvm.

railscasts.com has bunch of good tutorials as well.

Hey, beginner, send me a message. We are in the same boat =D

@Colin, can I have question. Why should I use rvm? I am using rbenv at the moment, which reminds me a python virtualenv and I am pretty satisfied with it.

So what is the advantage?

Yes I believe you are right, rbenv is also ok.

Thank you, @Colin. Good to know that I have not taken a wrong direction for the very beginning. :slight_smile:

Hi!

i am beginner in ruby on rails

I’m also a beginner… I have found these tutorials and books very useful: Getting Started with Rails — Ruby on Rails Guides, http://associacio-aoe.org/aoe/files/documentacio/volcanica/2007/introduccion_ruby_on_rails.pdf (spanish), http://ptgmedia.pearsoncmg.com/images/9780321832054/samplepages/0321832051.pdf

Currently, I work in RGSoC. If you want to learn together or have any problem, search me as @claucece on twitter. I have some Rails mentors, so I can help :slight_smile:
