so where do i start
I use https://exercism.org/ for learning elixir and it is a great tool to start IMO. It has a track for Ruby here: https://exercism.org/tracks/ruby

Anyone help me make a decision, on my ruby journey?
Once you’re done with the odin project and want to continue learning ruby, I suggest checking out Exercism ruby track too. There is a learning track, exercises are increasing in difficulty, and you get free mentoring from Rubyists on there too.

Recently started first software engineering job, looking for course to improve Rails skills
If you want to improve your grasp of Ruby, try The Well-Grounded Rubyist and (as someone else mentioned) Exercism.

Learning Ruby with Head First Ruby - would that make sense or is the book too old?
When I was first learning Ruby, I also loved Exercism for practice.
- Code Practice/Challenges

hello people, first time using reddit, first time creating a post. ¿ Some ruby and ruby on rails, free bootcamps?
Exercism for Ruby practice.

I'm a front-end dev currently being asked to work on a Rails API backend. What are some good resources to get comfortable with the language and the framework?
Ruby: - The Well-Grounded Rubyist. It covers some advanced Ruby, so it's worthwhile even if you already know some Ruby. - Exercism for Ruby practice.

What should I be learning?
For getting an overview of Ruby and Rails in two weeks, here's what I would recommend: - Watch the free Rails for Beginners videos by GoRails, and code along with them if you're so inclined. - Do some exercises on Exercism, and after each exercise be sure to look at the top solutions by other people. Use The Odin Project or your favorite Ruby tutorial as a reference for the language.

why its so hard to find pure ruby tutorials? any suggestions ?
Also, the Ruby track on Exercism is great for practice.

Being laid off in 2023-2024 as an early-career developer
More consistent learning. The job search also gave me a chance to get back to my Ruby/web development learning roadmap. I realized that at my last job, I wasn't consistently spending time improving my skills, outside of whatever I might (if I was lucky) be learning in work projects. It's just hard to fight against the pressure of the day-to-day work. Here are some approaches that I'll try this time around: Disregard immediate applicability and learn something I'm interested in for the sake of expanding my mind. Right now that's learning functional programming. Learn actively, whether by contributing to Exercism's Ruby track, building a collection of Ruby code katas, or maybe even creating a text-based game.

Beyond these basics, I've put together a list of my favorite Ruby/Rails learning resources.

Learning Git: my favorite resources
I made the Git list by (1) scouring the Web for recommended resources, then (2) trying out each one to see if it would be worth going through to the end. In case you're curious about which resources didn't make the cut, here's the commit where they are removed.

Learning Ruby: a retrospective
As a guide to my reflections today, I'll use my "Learning Ruby" roadmap, which originally arose out of the chaos of my bookmark hell, where I was having trouble keeping track of the actually important learning resources. The roadmap worked well for me and eventually I put it up on GitHub because making it public gives me more motivation to keep making progress.

Looking for Career Change
For me, Ruby was a great choice for a career change. I used to be a teacher until I quit in 2020, then over the next 1.5 years I studied and practiced part-time, while working full-time in a remote customer support job. Ever since I started learning Ruby, I've saved my favorite learning resources here: https://github.com/fpsvogel/learn-ruby. Many of them are free.

OOP vs. services for organizing business logic: is there a third way?
So I've set out to explore the problem of organizing business logic from more angles than before, using the resources listed below. These lists are excerpted from my "Learning Ruby" road map which I often update, so you may want to find these lists there if this post is old at the time of your reading it. The sections corresponding to the lists below are, at the time of writing, "Rails architecture" and "Rails codebases".

Learning Rails vs JS ecosystem?
I'll tell my story and you can decide if it resonates with you at all. Also these might help you: my Ruby roadmap (favorite learning resources), and my blog post "How to find your first Rails job".

Recently started first software engineering job, looking for course to improve Rails skills
I actually don't know of a good "beyond the basics" Rails course. The one or two that I've seen out there are prohibitively expensive. For me the best way forward has been to improve in specific areas, such as OOP, testing, and SQL basics. I've made a list of my favorite resources in each area, which might help you.
