我的建议是开始——选择一个你通常用来学习mvc风格语言的小项目(例如，一些数据库，可能是一些基本的工作流)，然后当你需要学习一个概念时，使用其中的一个(或两个!)

使用Rails进行敏捷Web开发 或 铁路之路

了解它是如何工作的，然后尝试一下。

敏捷Web开发的问题在于它已经过时了，并且场景运行的时间太长，以至于您真的不想只构建一次;Rails方式可能很难遵循，因为它是从参考到学习的跳跃，但如果它是好的，它比敏捷Web开发要好。

但总的来说，它们都是好书，都有利于学习，但它们都没有提供你想要遵循的“教育”路径。所以我读了前者的几章(足以获得基本概念并学习如何引导第一个应用程序——也有一些在线文章可以帮助这一点)，然后就开始了，然后每隔几天我就会阅读一些新的东西，或者我用书来理解一些东西。

还有一点:这两本书都是Rails方面的书籍，而不是Ruby方面的书籍，如果您打算编写干净的代码，那么尽早花一天时间学习Ruby语法是值得的。Why's Guide to Ruby是一本很好的书，还有其他的。

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。

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。

您可以尝试的另一个IDE是Aptana。

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。
