Training: Get Started Fast with Ruby on Rails

Posted by Dr Nic on March 25, 2008

You probably know a dozen people in Brisbane, or Sydney, or Melbourne or somewhere in between who need to learn Rails. That’s sad, because the 2-day course I’m running on the 19-20th of April only has 7 places remaining. So 12-7=5 of your friends will hate you; but 7 of them will love you and that’s more than 50%.

So they can get uber-edumacated on the Ways of Rails, send them course website or indirectly via the Dr Nic Academy website.

The early bird price ends on 31st of March, so please buy your tickets early. The course is in Brisbane, so if you’re flying in from out of town and need help arranging accomodation etc, ping me.

    The workshop will cover:

    • start a new Rails application in 5 minutes
    • read and write to a database without using any SQL statements or advanced knowledge
    • use the Model-View-Controller method of application design
    • create dynamic HTML using the data from the database
    • generate models and controllers so you don’t have to type as much yourself
    • work with “convention over configuration” – Rails makes a lot of decisions for you!
    • write tests for your applications so you know instantly if something has gone wrong
