Section 13.6. Summary

13.6. Summary In this chapter, we covered some of the history of Ruby on Rails, including the fact that Ruby on Rails is separated into Ruby and Rails. From there, we covered the process of installing Ruby and then installing Rails and viewing the default page. Then we covered how to create an empty project and fire up the included WEBrick web server and access a MySQL database, albeit with a little difficulty. In essence, the purpose of this chapter is to point the reader in the right direction when in search of an environment that supports Ajax.
