About Agile Web Development with Rails 7.2

Ruby on Rails helps you produce high-quality, beautiful-looking web applications quickly — you concentrate on creating the application, and Rails takes care of the details. Rails 7.2 brings many improvements, and this edition is updated to cover the new features and changes in best practices.

We start with a step-by-step walkthrough of building a real application, and in-depth chapters look at the built-in Rails features. Follow along with an extended tutorial as you write a web-based store application. Eliminate tedious configuration and housekeeping, seamlessly incorporate JavaScript, send and receive emails, manage background jobs with ActiveJob, and build real-time features using WebSockets and ActionCable. Test your applications as you write them using the built-in unit, integration, and system testing frameworks, internationalize your applications, and deploy your applications easily and securely.

Rails 1.0 was released in December 2005. This book was there from the start, and didn’t just evolve alongside Rails, it evolved with Rails. It has been developed in consultation with the Rails core team. In fact, Rails itself is tested against the code in this book.

Now available in beta from pragprog.com/titles/rails72.

If you bought the previous Rails 7 version of this title from us, don’t worry. We’ve added this book to your previous purchase at no additional cost. Just go back to your downloads and you’ll see both the original Rails 7 and the new Rails 7.2 ebooks available for download.
