That's coming from the /views/layouts/application.html.erb file. This is how
Rails templates usually render. You don't want to get rid of that file, only
edit it to remove the extra bits you don't need. Remember though -- you will
need the JavaScript stuff if you expect your forms to work, since you won't be
able to send a PUT or DELETE request without it.
But more importantly, your home.html.erb should very definitely only be this
part:
<h1>Sample App</h1>
<p>
This is the home page for the
<a href="http://railstutorial.org/";>Ruby on Rails Tutorial</a>
sample application
</p>
Otherwise you will either have to override the normal (convention-based) Rails
rendering to remove the template option from every render, or you'll end up
with a page-within-a-page monstrosity such as you have now.
