Delving into Rails: Day 1
So far so good!

Currently the project already have to be checked out into a directory on the server, and the directory for the files to be copied to needs to exist. I’ll work on [...]
Delving into Rails
Over the past few weeks I’ve been reading up on Ruby on Rails for work. So I’ve decided what better way to learn than to jump in head first?
