Learning RoR, Books & Tutorials?
csbartus: Learning RoR -- and maybe other web frameworks too -- is not easy.
There are at least two phases of the learning process: learning Ruby as a language and Rails as a framework, then get acquainted with the RoR ecosystem -- github, deployment, existing reusable projects and components, best development environment, how the community works etc etc.As a first step I recommend reading books, start coding, participating in simple open source projects/gems on github. Get the RoR style.Then get on the flow by reading RubyFlow, try other things than Rails like Sinatra, ruby screen scraping etc etc. Get the RoR/Ruby perspective.I highly recommend community-powered resources for all of these:- Rubyflow, PlanetRubyOnRails : the everyday news, announcements
- Apidock : ruby, rails, rspec guides 
- Rails Guides : up-to-date Rails doc in a readable format
- Ruby Toolbox, RubyTrends : all about the ecosystem in real-time. You'll learn here what modules to use/digg in, how to extend your sources of information.Personally I would recommend two books: Design Patterns in Ruby by Russ Olsen and The Art of Rails by Edward Benson
