Ask HN: What is a great project based Rails tutorial for 2025?

18 points| coopreme | 7 months ago

What are your opinions? TOP always comes up as a great option. Doesn’t have to be free; not new to programming.

Thanks in advance for any thoughts, recommendations, or shared experiences.

This one by Evil Martians is fairly recent https://rails-tutorial.evilmartians.io/ I haven't done it, since I already know Rails very well, but I know these guys as reputable contributors to the Ruby ecosystem.

It’s the official new Getting Started but ported to a browser-based runtime powered by WebContainers, so you can complete the whole tutorial without having to install Ruby or Rails. It’s very cool!

Try *"Rails for Beginners"* by GoRails or *"The Odin Project"* — both are up-to-date, project-based, and great for 2025.

Thx. I have TOP pulled up- I’ll take a peek at GoRails as well. There are other things like Hotwire that I’d like to understand but will come back to that after I get a hand on the framework.

Since you aren't new to programming, I'd say the documentation.
