Now what

Allen Dardenelle

I've gotten through the Programming Ruby book and I have good idea of
how Ruby works; but I am stuck with what to do next. I mean, I know I
have to learn Ruby before I get into Rails (i.e. Ruby is the engine of
the car and Rails is the body of the car), but I have no idea of what to
do with Ruby (as in by it self without Rails).

So is there anything I can do with Ruby on the web without knowing a lot
about Rails?

etc

you can also learn to use databases with ruby, without rails...
see a recent post on that

Funnily enough, we are looking for ideas for good, short Ruby projects for
Bitwise at the moment. We have an introductory Ruby tutorial online at the
moment. We plan to wrap that up by the end of April. After that I want to
run some occasional Ruby programming columns. I was thinking along the lines
of doing some simple file/text processing projects (e.g. maybe some HTML
search/replace tools for webmasters), some disk utilities (finding files,
sorting by size across multiple directories?), maybe even a game (well, I'm
an adventure game freak at heart).

But if you have any other ideas, please let me know.

best wishes

Actually you're probably more than ready to test out Rails. Check out
Agile Web Development with Rails -- they walk you through examples that
do not require deep understanding of Ruby. For that matter, nothing
I've seen in Rails requires a super-deep understanding of Ruby to grasp.
