The Essential Ruby on Rails Course for Beginners (Udemy.com)

I have never had success setting up my environment until now. The instructions are easy to follow and helpful. I have learned enough at this very early stage to be encouraged and motivated.

greate so far

It is a good course. Recommended for beginners. However, it's a little bit outdated. Bootstrap and several gems won't work as used in the videos, so you'll have to figure out many things on your own. I liked the practicality and repetition of things that Mattan goes through to explain concepts. You certainly get a grasp of what coding with Rails is all about.

I am in the last section, until now its great course with a clear and calm explanation but you should bear in mind that you'll not get support from the instructor! and he uses alpha version of bootstrap4 which is bad practice for tutorials or production... if you are on a windows machine(or having trouble with mac and Linux) then please don't use it for rails. an instructor told me that he in over ten years yet has to meet a rails developer who uses windows (without Linux on it ) because there is a lot of gems not compatible with windows ...for this problem and other you might have I recommend:1) using Cloud9 website to develop instead of windows, basically its an Ubuntu in the cloud with some differences like "rails s -p $PORT -b $IP" command instead of the regular "rails server" . or you could set up a Linux VirtualBox. just google/youtube how to do it.-2) make sure your ruby version is above 2.2 and install the exact rails version he uses, by typing this command in the command line:gem install rails -v '~> 5.0.0.1'-3) if you are on cloud9 use git commands from inside the rails app folder (the same folder you run rails server inside), not inside the parent Cloud9 workspace-4) this is optional but you can deploy to Heroku from GitHub directly and select auto deploy option enabled. just in Heroku create a project and choose deploy from GitHub and choose your master branch of your omrails then in same page select auto deploy this way when you git push to GitHub, your project on Heroku will automatically update/deploy from GitHub so you have only to type "git push" and don't have to type " git push heroku master" too.. this way is much easier !! but remember you still have to add Heroku as a remote repository and have Heroku "Toolbelt" installed in cloud9(or your Linux machine),in order to run Heroku commands.( just google it)-5) when making migrate on your machine you have to migrate on Heroku too. so every time "rails db:migrate" you have also to "heroku run rails db:migrate"-6) there are differences between alpha bootstrap 4 and the current version. just look at the bootstrap documentation-7) if you see the controllers generated by scaffolding have no actions then write them as you see in the lessons.

This class is great! the application is fun, and the class pace is great. The instructor doesn't waste anytime and the videos on average are only about 5 minutes long, so easy to digest. The only thing about the class that you absolutely have to follow is what rails version you use. I used 5.1.5 and I think he uses 5.0.3. Some of the Gems in the final week didn't work for my application. Other than that, great class and a lot of fun!

It is outdated, and will waste hours of your time with errors generated from the instructions vs current versions issues creating errors.

delayed response or no response to questions asked. But apart from that good tutorial for new beginners.

This tutorial helped me lot in better way to understand ruby on rails concept and how it works. Also understood how Bootstrap works.The tutor is good and he speaks not too fast not too slow which i liked the most and the way of explanation is very good. Really worth to take this course, I would recommend every beginners to start with this course first. All the best!

Please help to make the text 'bigger' when the instructor types

I had never used anything with the command line and I just downloaded a linux distro on my other computer and I think I'll use some commmands on it
