Tutorial : Introduction to AJAX in Ruby on Rails with Prototype, Script.aculo.us

Heya,
After a long time I had the time to update my blog. I have been working on my project presentation for the past 2 weeks. The entire presentation was developed in Flash CS3 coded in ActionScript 3. It was ages since I had used Flash and I was quite astonished how it had changed over the years. I`ll be soon posting some tutorials on Flash, so do keep an eye out

Anyways apart from being a bit off-topic, This tutorial deals with AJAX implementation in Ruby on Rails 2. While I was learning RoR, I had lot of issues of properly having AJAX implementation in my projects. This tuorial is for those people out there.

In this tutorial, I`ll just show some very simple Script.aculo.us Animation Implementations in RoR.

Tutorial : Create a login system in Ruby on Rails

Hello everyone,
In today’s tutorial I`ll teach you how to create a very basic Login System in Ruby on Rails. Welcome to Tutorial : Create a login system in Ruby on Rails. Before proceeding I would suggest you guys to read Tutorial : Create a blog using Ruby on Rails 2. (Part 1 – Relationships) since we will be using this sytem in our application.

Introduction

We will create a very simple standalone login system first, It will check the database for valid users. Then I`ll let you know how to integrate a similar login system in our blog application. First of course the basics.

We would need to design

• Login page
• A page which would have to be protected by the login system
• Function to Check session, if not valid, then redirect to login page.

Hey Guys,

Anyways, You must have noticed the new “Featured Flash Widget” and some small changes here and there, the site is being updated constantly with a lil tweaks here and there, so please bear with it. Today I`ll show you how to create a simple “Hello World” application in RoR2. When I was trying to learn RoR2, there were no articles on how to create a simple “Hello World” application. So I thought I`ll take this time to introduce all the newbies to Ruby on Rails 2 on how to create a simple Hello World App.

Greetings,

Most of you must have heard of “Ruby on Rails (RoR)”. It being touted as the next best thing (apart from php ). Well lemme give you a lowdown of what Ruby on Rails is…

I`ll try to explain the power of RoR in the simplest of words,

If PHP can do something after typing 75 lines of code, RoR can do the same thing in typing mearly 3 lines of code !!!!
Thats as simple is it gets ! But then again, there is a catch to it, RoR is equally complex. So Today, I`ll just give you the basic idea of what Ruby on Rails is, and how to set up a developer environment for RoR, So next time we can directly start creating applications. woohoo !
