I just started playing with rails. I bought two books about rails. Agile webdevelopment and head first rails. Both good books. My idea was to start with head first rails and then move on. The head first rails is really easy to read and clear. problem is, well its outdated. The more interesting stuff doesn't work anymore and has changed in rails 4, which i am using.
More recently I installed Django. Powerfull, but i have a lot to learn :)
I created an account here for getting help, and hopefully in the future to help others.
My most recent "playing" is done with meteor and now angular.js.
