Im just getting started on learning Ruby on Rails and was wondering if HNers had some good resource to look at. Not looking for articles specifically, just resources that aggregate news, links, tutorials, etc.<p>I guess I'm looking for an HN or Digg for RoR.
Perhaps I'm biased as I run several Ruby sites but <a href="http://www.rubyflow.com/" rel="nofollow">http://www.rubyflow.com/</a> is probably the closest to what you want. It's a community driven Ruby and Rails link site. Anyone can post there but I "curate" it (delete spam, edit descriptions if they're weird).<p>I also run <a href="http://rubyweekly.com/" rel="nofollow">http://rubyweekly.com/</a> which is a weekly Ruby e-mail newsletter.<p>I'm also co-host of <a href="http://rubyshow.com/" rel="nofollow">http://rubyshow.com/</a> which is a weekly Ruby news podcast (and covers much the same stuff as the newsletter). There's also <a href="http://ruby5.envylabs.com/" rel="nofollow">http://ruby5.envylabs.com/</a> (which I'm not involved with) if you prefer shorter and sweet news coverage in podcast form.<p><a href="http://planetrubyonrails.com/" rel="nofollow">http://planetrubyonrails.com/</a> is a cool "planet" site if you want a roundup of blog posts though it's not as up to date with sources as it used to be but is the best planet site nonetheless. <a href="http://rubycorner.com/" rel="nofollow">http://rubycorner.com/</a> has more links but doesn't show the items inline.<p>Last but not least, <a href="http://reddit.com/r/ruby" rel="nofollow">http://reddit.com/r/ruby</a> is a Ruby subreddit and has a reasonable selection of stuff. Including, often, stuff not on the other sites (but the same goes the other way too, of course).
For fantastic free weekly video tutorials you must check out Ryan Bates' <a href="http://Railscasts.com" rel="nofollow">http://Railscasts.com</a>. Each one is typically on a new topic, (although there have been "mini-series") each exploring some new feature, technique or add-on.<p>If you need a quick-start on deploying one of the many gems out there, there's a good chance Ryan has you covered.
I'm just learning Rails as well and I found <a href="http://railsforzombies.org/" rel="nofollow">http://railsforzombies.org/</a> and <a href="http://ruby.railstutorial.org/" rel="nofollow">http://ruby.railstutorial.org/</a> to be great resources.
One of my favorite Rails resources has been <a href="http://everydayrails.com/" rel="nofollow">http://everydayrails.com/</a><p>It's not exactly what you're looking for, but it has some great articles.
