Summary: Rails has a learning curve. If you're a newbie, you will get confused.
None of these errors are confusing once you've been using Rails for a couple of weeks.
- jister 17y agoI think that is the point of the article. The errors are confusing to a newbie - 1 day old
- jamesbritt 17y agoMaybe. I found routing errors to be massively useless until I spent way too much time finding out just what was expected to make things work. Rails seems to favor the approach of first reading many docs and tutorials, then working your way through a series of examples, and always doing things Just So. It's not so friendly if you decide to wing it and try things because your gut says it might just work. The funny thing is, one of the things I like about Ruby is that it works just the opposite; it's quite easy to jump in and guess at what to before reading much documentation. You'll often be right, or you'll (mostly) figure it out pretty fast.
