I played around with Node.js in a previous post for web framework design. Now I want to explore Rails a bit. I haven’t found tutorials that I really like on Rails, at least for those getting started. Now that I have gotten started, some of those tutorials I did find are more helpful to me, but they weren’t as helpful starting out. So here I’ll write in a way that helped me learn more about how Rails is actually working, rather than just relying on the “magic” that everyone tells me is happening behind the scenes.
