If one wants to get into Ruby, please stay away from Rails as a first step into Ruby-land.
Look into Rack and Sinatra first, then Rails. Even if it's a short trip it's going to be worth it.
- Lio 4y agoThis is personal opinion but these days I'd probably swap Sinatra for Roda[1] for small API services. It's generally faster, uses less memory and is a really good example of well written ruby code, IMHO. I also really like Jeremy Evans' book, Polished Ruby. 1. http://roda.jeremyevans.net/index.html http://roda.jeremyevans.net/index.html 2. https://www.packtpub.com/product/polished-ruby-programming/9781801072724 https://www.packtpub.com/product/polished-ruby-programming/9...
