On the Right Track

November 7th, 2009

For the last 4 months I’ve been learning how to program web applications using Ruby on Rails. While I still have a long ways to go, I’ve already made some solid progress. My first application includes the following features:

  • Full Login & Registration System
  • User Profiles
  • Location Based Calculations (longitude and latitude)
  • Nice AJAX Effects (for people with javascript turned on)
  • A Full Featured Messaging System

Still lots of work and learning to do, but working with Rails has taught me so much about ‘best practice’ web programming.

More updates to come :-)
