    <p>They are both fantastic, and can accomplish the same goals very quickly. I used a great book to learn a while back, and it would be right up your alley: <a href="http://rads.stackoverflow.com/amzn/click/1934356204">Rails for .Net Developers</a> </p> <p>Also, I wrote a post about <a href="http://naspinski.net/post/Learning-Ruby-on-Rails-for-a-Net-MVC-C-Coder.aspx">going from MVC to RoR</a> a while back as well.</p> <p>As for comparisons, they both have strengths as has been covered, but here are a few that stick out to me: </p> <ul> <li><p>I really do like RoR's deployment and simple ways to push to live sites - no scripts to run at all, just a bit of command line should get you up and running once the code is actually written. If you choose RoR, <strong>UNDERSTAND THE COMMAND LINE COMMANDS - it will make your life so much easier!</strong></p></li> <li><p>As you mentioned, the plugins are great, and can really be used to speed things up.</p></li> <li><p>As a .Net dev, MVC will be a breeze, I would recommend using Razor, as it is very simple and less cluttered than the old 2.0 non-razor rendering.</p></li> <li><p>.Net's EF4 can be compared almost directly to RoR's ActiveRecord, great ORM systems tfor dealing with data.</p></li> <li><p>I have found that .Net's documentation is a bit more consistent and thorough.</p></li> <li><p>One problem I had with RoR was the rapid and drastic changes; not so long ago, they upgraded to 3.0 on my host, and I did not lock my version - all sorts of stuff broke until I figured out the new stuff (I should have frozen my version).</p></li> </ul> <p>It is not a clean cut choice - both are great. As you are already a .Net dev, I would guess MVC3 would be the way to go, but both are easy to learn.</p>

    2. CONow that ASP.NET MVC is open source, I wonder how quickly it will close the feature gap with RoR. I'm putting my money on MVC3 now that the developer community will have the ability to contribute to a product that is still supported in full by the MS engineering teams.

    3. CONot sure about RoR. If you are a.NET guy with C# MVC and Razor, but you find MS MVC, WebAPI, WCF, EF a bit cumbersome, and want a tighter packed solution... you can try SS http://www.servicestack.net/ ... It is free, open source, very active community supports .net and mono, full replacement of the above heavy framworks. I personally heart it a lot :)

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
