Produktbeschreibung
Ruby on Rails is the super-productive new way to develop full-featured

web applications. With Ruby on Rails, powerful web applications that

once took weeks or months to develop can now be produced in a matter of

days. If it sounds too good to be true, it isn't.

If you're like a lot of web developers, you've probably considered

kicking the tires on Rails - the framework of choice for the new

generation of Web 2.0 developers. Ruby on Rails: Up and Running takes you out for a test drive and shows you just how fast

Ruby on Rails can go.

This compact guide teaches you the basics of installing and using both

the Ruby scripting language and the Rails framework for the quick

development of web applications. Ruby on Rails: Up and

Running covers just about everything you

need - from making a simple database-backed application to

adding elaborate Ajaxian features and all the juicy bits in between.

While Rails is praised for its simplicity and speed of development,

there are still a few steps to master on the way. More advanced

material helps you map data to an imperfect table, traverse complex

relationships, and build custom finders. A section on working with Ajax

and REST shows you how to exploit the Rails service frameworks to send

emails, implement web services, and create dynamic user-centric web

pages. The book also explains the essentials of logging to find

performance problems and delves into other performance-optimizing

techniques.

As new web development frameworks go, Ruby on Rails is the talk of the

town. And Ruby on Rails: Up and Running can make

sure you're in on the discussion.
