Congratulations on teaching yourself an entire language!
You will be building a blog in Rails, a web framework written in Ruby. Rails is what we use for building our API, and completion of this project will allow you to immediately start contributing to that codebase.
You will be building a blog in Rails. Luckily, the creators of Rails have a vast set of guides for beginners; you will be able to follow the text easily and quickly.
- We will be using http://guides.rubyonrails.org/getting_started.html.
- The guide will tell you to create a new Rails project. Create that in your own GitHub repository, and add/commit/push whenever you feel necessary (usually at every major step).
- Just keep going! Will only take about hour or two total.
You can only learn by doing. Check out the client-app's issues. We have some labeled good first issue, which are more suitable for first-time contributors. See our contributing guide for further instructions.
