Today has mostly been spent figuring out rails and some other stuff, but mostly rails. As a framework with so many interwoven parts (even though MVC does make sense as a set of interrelated parts), it can be confusing to keep track of for now. Oh well, back to the grind.

Learning materials for today:

Humdle Hacker Bundle

The Joy of Coding Bundle from the other day on HumbleBundle.com was wonderful, but I also found out about some of the books from this one as well, and they come fairly well recommended. This from computer world does a solid job explaining what’s in it, but I can speak from experience that Automate the Boring Stuff and No Starch Press as a publishing house is really good.

Learning Git

So after Egghead.io’s course on how to contribute to an open source project, I was still confused and wanted more practice with Git. Luckily the WebDev community has TONS of resources that I was able to find pretty quickly:

• Atlassian

• Reddit

• js.org

• github
