Learning Ruby on Rails in 2022

I am not kidding, despite all the youtube tutorials & online guides, this one hit the nail.

Follow everything in your pace, and ready everything thoroughly.

There's no best way, my friend.

Hartl's tutorial was where I started, many years ago. I think he keeps it updated.

The best way to learn web dev is to build the thing you want. You'll learn what you need as you go.

I started with Sinatra first, the goal is to actually learn Ruby.

Then i go with Ruby on Rails, with help of some good tutorials. The point is, get accquainted with git, rails convention, testing and deployment.

Skip the Javascript part as most as possible first.

The important thing on this journey, is you'll eventually love Ruby, let it drive your fun, curiosity and happiness along the way.

Good luck!

Start following the blog example Ruby on Rails tutorial on the Ruby and rails guides but at the same time try to learn the Ruby language more deeply than rails books introduce. There are few good Ruby books but I the most complete resource to learn Ruby deeply that I have found are the few excellent courses on it on pluralsight, especially the two courses by Alex Korban. Unfortunately pluralsight is a paid service but you could sign up temporarily for a few months to learn what you need. Also there are a bunch of really good Ruby language presentations on Ruby central on youtube

If video content is your thing, I've really enjoyed GoRails. I haven't personally gone through it, but I've heard great things about their starting rails course, and Chris is a great teacher.

Good luck!

I remember doing a basic Ruby's Code Academy course and the Cloning famous apps based on another Udemy course. Cloning apps is one of better approaches for this.
