I recently began working with Ruby on Rails after years in ASP.Net and I still have to refer to the API, Guides, and documentation so I consider myself an amateur. I'm having to get used to programming "better" since I no longer have the assistance of a compiler to catch these type of errors.
As you probably know, Rails is about convention over configuration. This increases the initial learning curve but speeds up development once you understand the conventions. I read Agile Web Development with Rails and was able to make it over the initial hump of "what..why is this capitalized and this plural and the singular" stage.
- johnbender 17y agoThe bigger problem you're facing is that ASP.NET has been forcing you to use the, shotgun-in-mouth worthy, event driven model (I've done .net web dev). The rest of the universe has been using MVC for five or 6 years to do web development. Praise be to Microsoft for figuring it out.
