- steveklabnik 16y agoIt depends. Two thoughts: 1: programming is programming. I'm trying to keep it about programming in general, not just Ruby specifically. You can read the lessons here[1], they're written in a simple DSL. 2: Webapps have both a server side and a client side component. I doubt that she'll be starting off with Node.js, eh? It could be because I'm a back-end kinda guy, but I'd rather start with simple, more old-school apps before getting into javascript heavy AJAXy client-side ones. YMMV. 1: https://github.com/hacketyhack/hacketyhack/tree/master/lessons https://github.com/hacketyhack/hacketyhack/tree/master/lesso...
