Hi dude, So, to create a model, a controller and layout/views, complety functional, with basic events CRUD(create read update delete) u open a terminal, get inside the folder of your app, and write 1)ruby script/generate scaffold ModelName column1:type column2:type ...columnN:type and hit enter :) 2)rake db:migrate
now to get u started, the proper way: 1) u need to have good undestanding of Ruby code, or at least, classes, objects, methods. this type of well grounded info can't be optained from tutorials, i have been studying computer science for 4 years, but from good bucks.And in my oppinion a good ruby book is Manning.The.Well.Grounded.Rubyist.May.2009. 2) a good rails book, which i don't have a proper example right now.what i have is Agile Web Development with Rails 3rd Ed, but if u decide to study it, get ready to meet Hell, no joking :) 3) a good reference :raiisguides, from ruby.com, and http://railsapi.com/doc/rails-v2.3.5/ Don't quite agree with raiscasts, as reference for a noob, not at all. hope this answer made any difference , regards, radup On Dec 18, 3:00 pm, adrian_m <[email protected]> wrote: > Hello all, > > I've started to write my first Rails application, using rails 2.3.5 > and some tutorials found on the net (for example Four Days on > Rails) .
