    <p>I've seen the infamous "Blog in 15 minutes" video ages ago when Rails was probably around version 1.0 or something like that. One of the most important things about the Ruby/Rails world is that given it's great community it's changing ridiculously fast in comparison to other frameworks.</p> <p>Today, Rails is significantly different that what it used to be, altho the main ideology has been kept the same. Having said that event tho in the lsat few years I've learnt a lot of things about Rails I still keep learning new things about it.</p> <p>The most valuable resources to me that help me discovering and keeping up with the latest ways of doing Ruby and Rails are the following:</p> <ul> <li><p><a href="http://guides.rubyonrails.org/" rel="nofollow">Rails Guides</a> - A nice way of learning Rails itself, edited by the community, moderated by the core contributors. The site has a lot to offer on most of the important main topics around Rails that it can get you up and running very quickly. It covers bot the most recent stable and edge versions of the framework.</p></li> <li><p>If you understand the main ideology of Rails than I definitely recommend checking out (and subscribing to) Ryan Bates' <a href="http://www.railscasts.com" rel="nofollow">Railscasts</a>. Let me just quote from the site itself, I think it's pretty self explanatory:</p> <blockquote> <p>Every week Ryan Bates will host a new Railscasts episode featuring tips and tricks with Ruby on Rails. These screencasts are short and focus on one technique so you can quickly move on to applying it to your own project. The topics target the intermediate Rails developer, but beginners and experts will get something out of it as well.</p> </blockquote></li> <li><p>There are also a lot of podcasts around Ruby/Rails, the two that I keep listening to are <a href="http://ruby5.envylabs.com/" rel="nofollow">Ruby5</a> and the <a href="http://rubyshow.com/" rel="nofollow">Ruby Show</a>.</p></li> <li><p>For more specific questions like API calls etc, I'd recommend APIDock's <a href="http://apidock.com/rails" rel="nofollow">Rails</a> and <a href="http://apidock.com/ruby" rel="nofollow">Ruby</a> sections where you can get more information on specific methods.</p></li> <li><p>If you are getting more familiar with the framework, it's worth taking a look at <a href="http://rails-bestpractices.com/" rel="nofollow">Rails Best Practices</a>. There's a bunch of short articles on certain issues that most people make in the beginning of their learning curve with Rails. This site is meant to point pot these issues and help beginners finding their way towards writing better and more well thought out code. There's also a <a href="https://github.com/flyerhzm/rails_best_practices" rel="nofollow">gem</a> that you could use which scans your application and points out these issues and offers solutions/workarounds. Pretty neat!</p></li> </ul> <p>These resources should help you in getting up and running with Rails. Good luck with your journey to the Rails world and welcome to the community.</p>
