Every other week you will be treated to a new, free RailsCasts episode featuring tips and tricks with Ruby on Rails, the popular web development framework. These screencasts are short and focus on one technique so you can quickly move on to applying it to your own project. The topics are geared toward the intermediate Rails developer, but beginners and experts will get something out of it as well. A Pro option is also available containing more screencasts each week. This is the full resolution version, a lower reoslution for mobile devices is also available.

Kundenrezensionen
Perfect coffee break filler
Spending a lot of time with work (coding Ruby on Rails applications, of course) takes away from time one should also spend on research and learning. Reading web articles can be tedious and takes time as well. I have around 25+ Rails articles in my "To Read" bookmark folder but I never get around to actually going through with that. This is where Railscasts shines – I can simply turn it on during a coffee break and have a look at a new episode.
It's not intended to be a complete Rails tip collection and neither a complete introduction to Rails. But it is a nice way to learn a thing or two and refresh some old Rails knowledge. Working on a project for a longer period of time gets me into tunnel-thinking mode and Railscasts is a nice diversion. Thumbs up!
