http://www.teachmetocode.com是学习Ruby和Ruby on Rails的绝佳来源。这里有一些介绍Rails基础知识的屏幕视频，还有一个由6部分组成的系列，介绍如何使用Ruby on Rails创建Twitter克隆版。

任何Rails的uber源都是http://www.rubyonrails.org/，如果站点上没有，你可能不需要它。

一个快速的食谱是Ruby on Rails: Up and Running，你可以从O'Rielly或搜索谷歌获得在线版本。他们带你了解Rails的约定，并使用Instant Rails，这是可以的。

更好的Rails书籍“敏捷Web开发与Rails”，这是Rails的汤到坚果。它会引导你下载和设置Rails、Gems等等。

如果你是一个Java“家伙”，想要一本过渡的书O' reilly有“Rails for Java Developers”http://oreilly.com/catalog/9780977616695/?CMP=AFC-ak_book&ATT=Rails+for+Java+Developers

我在很久以前看过臭名昭著的“15分钟写博客”视频，当时Rails大概还在1.0版本左右。关于Ruby/Rails世界最重要的事情之一是，鉴于它是一个伟大的社区，与其他框架相比，它的变化速度快得可笑。

今天，Rails与过去相比有了很大的不同，尽管其主要意识形态一直保持不变。尽管在过去的几年里我学到了很多关于Rails的东西，但我仍然在不断地学习关于它的新东西。

对我来说，帮助我发现并跟上Ruby和Rails的最新方法的最有价值的资源如下:

Rails Guides - 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. If you understand the main ideology of Rails than I definitely recommend checking out (and subscribing to) Ryan Bates' Railscasts. Let me just quote from the site itself, I think it's pretty self explanatory: 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. There are also a lot of podcasts around Ruby/Rails, the two that I keep listening to are Ruby5 and the Ruby Show. For more specific questions like API calls etc, I'd recommend APIDock's Rails and Ruby sections where you can get more information on specific methods. If you are getting more familiar with the framework, it's worth taking a look at Rails Best Practices. 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 gem that you could use which scans your application and points out these issues and offers solutions/workarounds. Pretty neat!

这些资源应该可以帮助您建立和运行Rails。祝您在Rails世界的旅程中好运，欢迎来到这个社区。

我发现http://railstutorial.org/book是学习Rails的一个很好的资源

您可以尝试的另一个IDE是Aptana。

我很惊讶为什么很少提到Ruby指南。Why可能已经不在了，但是这个指南很容易在网上找到(谷歌点在这里)，它是一个非常简单的阅读，提供了我对Ruby的介绍。

在这份指南之后，我将推荐其他人推荐的书籍之一，或者跟随学习Rails的系列视频，这是我如何学会足够多的Ruby on Rails的。一旦你完成了学习Rails系列。你想用Rails做的事情将开始与一般的教程有所不同，这就是Railscasts成为一个很棒的工具的地方。Railscasts在某些方面没有涉及到Rails可以做的事情。
