Course Overview
Watch over my shoulder as I build a Pinterest-style website. I'll walk you through it step by step quickly and easily!
Ruby on Rails can seem overwhelming at first, but it doesn’t have to be! In this course I’ll walk you through it step by step and you’ll be building your first web app in MINUTES. You’ll be amazed how quick and easy it is to create very professional looking websites, even if you have no programming or web design experience at all.
Watch over my shoulder as I build a Pinterest website step by step right in front of you. You’ll follow along and build your own copy. By the time we’re finished, you’ll have a solid understanding of Ruby on Rails and how to use it to build awesome web apps.
The course contains 19 videos – and is just over 5 hours long. Watch the videos at your own pace, and post questions along the way if you get stuck. You don’t need any special knowledge or software to take this course, though any experience with HTML or CSS is a plus. You don’t even need to know the Ruby programming language. I’ll walk you through EVERYTHING.
Ruby on Rails is a great web development tool and learning it has never been this easy.

Great class for a beginner programer. Some of the gem docs have obviously been updated but that makes for a good opportunity to learn and actually read the docs. Well done, thanks John.

I enjoyed the content and the instruction was really straight forward. Would definitely recommend to anyone interested in rails or looking for experience in building an application with the MVC architecture. However, there are a couple spots where code changes are made that aren't explained that can lead to a bit of confusion. Overall: great course!

The teacher explains every single thing step by step, inculding the reservoir stuff. For the most part he uses free stuff like heroku, bitbucket and c9. Even now a days that the course has long ended, he is pretty quick to answer question, again with a step by step solution, awesome course for begginers

It's not very engaging...(First Run). After going through the course a second and third time, I changed my rating. One trick I used that increased my utility of the course was the SPEED Selector. I bumped it up to 1.25 and even 1.5 sometimes. There is a great deal of good information found in the lessons for new students. One way that might be beneficial in elaborating on those areas would be to break down the lessons into more manageable bites. Maybe more like 5-6 minute long blocks instead of 30?
