Hi, I come from a PHP background. I've created many web apps in PHP, using simple self-made ORM classes and also other popular open-source frameworks. I intend to learn Ruby thoroughly before jumping to any Ruby web framework. How do I create simple web applications using plain Ruby (and a server like WEBrick of course)? I learnt PHP by creating simple classes that could read stuff from and add to the database. Once I was through with this, I started learning other major frameworks in PHP (like Yii). I think it will be best to learn Ruby the same way, once I know the basic concepts of it. How do I go about this? How can I create a very simple web app in Ruby, with a few classes that can talk to the db? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
