Apple 发布 RoR 教程
Apple 最近发布了 RoR 教程-Using Ruby on Rails for Web Development on Mac OS X
The Ruby on Rails web application framework has built up a tremendous head of steam over the last year. Fueled by some significant benefits and an impressive portfolio of real-world applications already in production, Rails is destined to continue making significant inroads in 2006. Simply put, Ruby on Rails is an open source tool that gives you the advantage of rapidly creating great web applications backed by SQL databases to keep up with the speed of the web. And with the release of Rails 1.0 kicking off the new year, there's never been a better time to climb aboard.
我一直在思考,RoR 到底给我们带来了什么?人们对 RoR 的追捧是否过度?不可否认,RoR 确实有很多值得学习的东西,它使得许多事情变得简单,减少了编码量,解决了 WEB 方面的某些问题,但任何事物都有两面性。觉得 Chris Shiflett 在 Ruby on Rails Fans 一文中分析得就挺有道理的。
I think a larger point is that good applications are built by good developers, not technologies. Did you know what all of these applications were written in? Did you care? Be honest.
