就目前而言,我是一名Java和c#开发人员。我对Ruby on Rails看得越多,我就越想学习它。

你发现学习RoR的最佳途径是什么?在Windows上开发会更容易吗,还是应该在Linux上运行虚拟机?

是否有一种IDE可以与Visual Studio的健壮性相匹配?有什么程序可以给我们一个很好的开销吗?有什么好书吗?

说真的,任何建议/技巧/咆哮都很棒。

My first suggestion would be to learn a little about symbols first. Rails isn't the smallest framework ever, and while there's definitely lots to learn, most of it will start to make sense if you have at least a little bit of understanding what makes it different ("special") from other languages. As pointed out, there's no exact analog in any of the major languages, but they're heavily used by Rails, in order to make things read straightforwardly and perform well, which is the reason I brought it up. My very first exposure to Rails was also my first time looking at Ruby (well before 2.0), and the first thing that caught my eye was the goofy :things they were passing around, and I asked, "WTF is that?"

另外,看看RubyQuiz,并在那个网站上阅读其他人的答案。

我认为来自Peepcode的截屏和短书真的很好。他们有一些截图让你开始学习,当你更深入的时候也会有一些。

学习任何东西(包括Ruby on Rails)的最快方法是结对编程。

找一个懂Rails的人,选择一个示例应用程序,坐下来,解决bug,添加功能。

知识共享是不可思议的。

再等几个月,Simon St. Laurent和Edd Dumbill的《Learning Rails》将于11月问世。那一系列的书是惊人的,这本书将涵盖Rails的最新版本。

我发现Obie Fernandez写的《The Rails Way》非常棒,当使用Rails进行敏捷Web开发还不够深入的时候,我经常会参考它。Obie Fernandez也有一个不错的博客。
