我认为来自Peepcode的截屏和短书真的很好。他们有一些截图让你开始学习，当你更深入的时候也会有一些。

这也是一本好书 http://guides.rubyonrails.org/

我的步骤是:

* Agile development with Rails (book)
* Railscasts - very useful, always learn something new.
* And of course the RoR API

我写了一篇名为“Rails入门——我希望知道的事情”的文章，许多人认为这篇文章很有帮助。

基础知识:

使用Rails进行敏捷开发(书籍) 用于Windows上快速ruby/rails环境的InstantRails Aptana作为IDE 用于版本控制的Subversion

在线教程很不错，但很分散。为了更全面的理解，你可以花30美元买一本书。

My first suggestion would be to learn a little about symbols first. Rails isn't the smallest framework ever, and while there's definitely lots to learn, most of it will start to make sense if you have at least a little bit of understanding what makes it different ("special") from other languages. As pointed out, there's no exact analog in any of the major languages, but they're heavily used by Rails, in order to make things read straightforwardly and perform well, which is the reason I brought it up. My very first exposure to Rails was also my first time looking at Ruby (well before 2.0), and the first thing that caught my eye was the goofy :things they were passing around, and I asked, "WTF is that?"

另外，看看RubyQuiz，并在那个网站上阅读其他人的答案。

要学习Ruby，请阅读David Black的《The Well-Grounded Rubyist》。它非常清晰，文笔优美，组织有序。这是我读过的最好的技术书籍(大概十几本，因为我是一个相对较新的程序员)。

要学习Rails，请阅读“Head First Rails”。它们解释了所有神秘的部分是如何协同工作的。对这些愚蠢之处要有耐心，并按照自己的方式完成这些例子——它会有回报的。(此外，为了一致性，使用他们使用的任何版本的Rails。您可以稍后升级。)

这两本书都假设你对OOP编程和MVC架构几乎一无所知。如果你确实知道一点，不要略读，因为你可能会错误地假设事情。(例如，Ruby对象没有公共属性，只有getter和setter。但是你可以用一行自动创建多个getter /setter，比如attr_accessor:attr1，:attr2，:attr3。)
