No Rails “A-Ha” moment yet
I took some time tonight and played with some Rails tutorials and yet have had a “A-Ha!” moment. You know, the moment when you say, “Yeah, this is really cool! I can’t wait to use it!” I mean, parts of it are cool, like writing one line of code and you have a listing of your database. But, for some reason, I’m not totally 100% sold yet. Maybe there is too much hype. Maybe the applications are too simplistic. I learned best by doing, so looking at the screencasts won’t help me any.
So I know that there are some Rails people who read this. What was your “A-Ha” moment? What tutorials do you recommend? In the meantime, I have an idea for my own application. Maybe that will help me get through the fog.
