    Hey guys, So I'm based in New Delhi, India and really wanna learn to program in RoR. I'm fairly good with computers and even know a bit of HTML/CSS but ruby is just so hard to understand without having someone to explain it to me. I've watched tutorials on youtube but they're half baked and I've also tried reading books but they don't seem to interest me at all.

    So, I'd like to know if someone would be nice enough to help me. I'd be forever grateful for your help and be really happy to reimburse you for your time and help. 😀

    Ruby on rails is based on MVC framework, you need to learn that first

    Once you learnt that, it will be a piece of cake for you

    Thanks

    If I were you, I would title this thread - How to get started with Ruby on Rails?

    There are some good free resources on the internet for learning Ruby, including:
    Mr. Neighborly’s Humble Little Ruby Book
    Programming Ruby
    Why’s (Poignant) Guide to Ruby

    Just google them up.

    And like Goyal said, At the core of Rails is the Model, View, Controller architecture, usually just called MVC.

    MVC benefits include:
    Isolation of business logic from the user interface
    Ease of keeping code DRY (“Don’t Repeat Yourself” – suggests that writing the same code over and over again is a bad thing.)
    Making it clear where different types of code belong for easier maintenance

    If you really want to get started the dumbass way, check this site out: #-Link-Snipped-# . I think it'd help anyone get a 'feel' of Ruby programming and generate interest. Once that stage is over; there are plenty of online tutorials. The ones from Learnable and Lynda are worth paying for.

    Before picking up a framework, learn some programming. say JS programming for instance. This will save you lot of frustration.
