Summary

This class consists of approximately ten 1.5 hour long sessions which will involve creating a full-functioning Rails application.

Prerequisites

Since we usually spend a lot of time setting up Ruby on Rails, doing that would be one of the prerequisites before coming to class. If you still need help, please let me know.

1. Ruby and Rails installed
2. Mac/Linux machine (use Windows at your own risk)
