在guides. Rails .info上阅读所有的指南，从Getting Started with Rails开始。它们写得很好，组织得很好，而且是最新的。

我的公司已经开发了三年的知识管理和决策支持平台mavenlive.com。在过去的几年里，我们学到了很多关于rails的知识，下面是我的一些建议。

Switch to Mac! The tools that are available to you and the development environment on Mac allows you to be far more productive than on Windows. railcasts.com has a wealth of informative screencasts from beginner to expert. You can always find new and more efficient ways of doing things from Ryan's posts. Scaling Rails screencasts coupled with NewRelic has provided powerful insight into the performance of our application and allows us to develop effectively while keeping our eyes open for future scalability issues.

学习任何东西(包括Ruby on Rails)的最快方法是结对编程。

找一个懂Rails的人，选择一个示例应用程序，坐下来，解决bug，添加功能。

知识共享是不可思议的。

IDE: NetBeans
Book: Agile Web Development With Rails
Installation: Instant Rails

我在Mac OS上使用RoR和textmate编程，这很棒。

我建议“Programming Ruby 1.9”(The Pickaxe Book) for Ruby and Agile Web Development with Rails”来学习Rails，两者都是由Pragmatic Bookshelf出版的。

好运！
