Can someone provide feedback on this release as to if it "includes rails 3" coverage or is "totally focused on rails 3". I would prefer the later; a book that doesn't take into account migration or trying to explain 2 vs. 3.
- icey 17y agoIt looks like it specifically focuses on Rails 3. The requirements in Chapter 1 state: "Ruby on Rails. This beta book was written using Rails version 3 (specifically Rails 3.0.0.beta3 at the current time)."
- jhancock 17y agocool. can't wait to see more reviews and see this book evolve out of beta. I used their original release to learn rails and was happy with the results. I've been on merb for the past 2 years, basically boycotting rails. It looks like I can stop the boycott for new projects in a few months as things smooth out.
- icey 17y agoIf you haven't done it before, I highly recommend signing up for the beta book program. The pragprogs really do a nice job with the beta PDFs and have a great system for downloading new versions.
- rubys 17y agoTotally focused on Rails 3. Does not take into account migration or try to explain 2 vs 3. (Disclosure: I'm one of the authors of the book)
