RUBY BOOKS (module 3)

Agile Web Development with Rails 4 Dave Thomas, Sam Ruby and David Heinemeier
Hansson Great book on Rails! First runs through a Rails application and only
then explains the topics, but a lot of people actually like that.

Ruby on Rails Tutorial Michael Hartl This book does a wonderful job of
explaining Rails development.

Rails 4 in Action Ryan Bigg, Yehuda Katz, Steve Klabnik, Rebecca Skinner
Another great book on developing with Ruby on Rails

IMPORTANT UPDATE (for the "BUILDING A RUBY ON RAILS APPLICATION" module)

The lectures you are about to watch revolve around the Coursera API. This API
worked great at the time these lectures were created, but has significantly changed
since then. (See more information about the new Coursera API here).

As a result of the above, if you try to follow along with the lectures - you will
not be able to. So, here is my advice. Watch the lectures and then when you are
ready to practice what you've learned, check out the following apps:

Random Counties App (https://github.com/jhu-ep-coursera/random-countries-

info#random-countries-info-app)
Book Searching App (https://github.com/jhu-ep-coursera/book-searchy#book-
searching-app)

These 2 applications are very similar to what you see in the lectures about the
Coursera Listing App.
