I say, scratch an itch of your own. Track something you need to track in your personal or professional life.
That way you don't have to beat requirements out of anybody (or guess at them). -----Original Message----- From: rubyonrails-talk@googlegroups.com [mailto:rubyonrails-t...@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Zooshej Sent: Tuesday, July 14, 2009 4:20 AM To: Ruby on Rails: Talk Subject: [Rails] Complete Beginner... Hi Folks, I am a Media Designer and Ruby on Rails beginner on a very basic level. I have a good background in HTML & CSS, but that's basically it. I havent worked with Ruby before and I am just getting startet with the Terminal of my Mac OS and get the basics of JavaScript. I've worked my way through a lot of resources (screencasts, forums, tutorials, ...) and got a pretty good overview of what Ruby on Rails can do and why it is a great framework. My problem is, the massive amount of information is overwhelming. I still look for a good point to start a project that enables me to learn Ruby on Rails on a more practical than theoretical way. What would you suggest to be a good application to start with as a beginner? A project that is quite easy to setup, and makes sense for a Designer. Thanks for your advice!
