[Rails] Re: Ruby on Rails for Beginners

I didn't come from a programming background and only had a very basic understanding of concepts such as objects, method, etc. I personally used these 3 resources and would strongly recommend them:

• Codecademy to get started with Ruby
• Codeschool to learn Rails and dig deeper into Ruby. I subscribed to get access to all the videos. It's $25/month and totally worth it if you're serious about learning Web Development. They have tutorials on: Ruby, Rails, Git, Javascript, HTML/CSS, etc.
• Once I felt I had the basics covered, I went through Hartl's tutorial
• Then I went back to codeschool to review some concepts that weren't all that clear to me (e.g. testing with Rspec)

That's all I needed, these 3 resources and it worked for me. Hope this helps your friends :)
