We have provided three ways of setting up a development environment, Local Setup, GitHub codespaces and Dev Container. We recommend you to choose GitHub codespaces if you face any issues while installing ruby locally.
We recommend sticking to the versions mentioned in the Installation Guide and run commands exactly as instructed, as all assignments in this Bootcamp are tested with these versions.
In the first week, we will introduce you to basic concepts related to Web Development and Git.
In this week, we'll take a look at Ruby and instructions to get your device ready for creating Ruby on Rails projects.
In this we will learn how to install Ruby and Rails, create a new Rails project and build a simple website.
Later we will take a closer look at Model of the MVC Architecture and talk about databases and working with records.
This week, we will look into controllers, routing and authentication.
