RoR

[leticia]

So, Ruby on Rails, supposed to make web app development like, recursive programming. "It just works!" (I like recursion, could you tell?)

I have a side project of my very own and supposedly RoR friendly hosting.

But I'm having troubles figuring out what I'm doing here. Explain in slow steps for someone used to PHP style scripting what I need to actually do to get myself working on a RoR application so that I can start seeing Hello World and yada.

Plz?

Do you have any experience with basic ruby, by any chance, or going straight to Rails?

None!

I'd suggest taking a look at the Chunky Bacon guide, if you haven't already. That's where I got started, anyways.

Oh, and for the online stuff, take a look at this: http://guides.rubyonrails.org/getting_started_with_rails.html
Specifically, step 4 should get you started, assuming that the web hosting already has ruby set up for you.
