Ruby Programming Nanodegree - GitHub

Learning Ruby—a programming language ideal for beginners—is the first step to mastering Ruby on Rails, the framework that powers sites like GitHub, Groupon, and Twitter.

Throughout the Nanodegree program, you’ll hear from major voices in the industry, including the creator of the Ruby language himself!

• Project P7: Survivr 1

  Ruby gems are libraries of code you can easily share with other developers. You'll go through the steps of building your own gem, which you'll then use in a later project. This gem will take advantage of some of Ruby's powerful metaprogramming features. Supporting lessons include Ruby Basics, Again, and Practical Metaprogramming.

• Project P8: Survivr 2

  Once you understand the fundamentals of object-oriented programming, you can start thinking about object oriented design. In this project, you'll practice composition by building out the game mechanics to Survivr, a popular (and complicated) hit new show. The design of your code will be dictated by test-driven development. Supporting lessons include Object Oriented Design and Reading Tests.

• Project P9: ToyCity 4

  Your inventory management application prototype was a hit! Now it's time to refine how your app interacts with a database. You'll put all the skills you've learned to use, including test-driven development, object oriented design, Ruby gems, and metaprogramming. Supporting lessons include Advanced Git & GitHub and Life After Ruby.
