This is part of my Ruby on Rails project.

Once I figured out what I wanted to do, I guess I had to figure out how I was going to do it.

• InstantRails: kind of like xampp, but for rails. It’s a simple-to-use installation of rails that comes with a deployment of MySQL that works out of the box. I’ve been playing with this for a while now and it’s pretty easy to use. So easy, in fact, that it just worked without my needing to do anything.
• I do my actual coding in eclipse, using these two ruby plugins:
• RDT: update site (http://updatesite.rubypeople.org/release).
  
• RadRails:update site (http://radrails.sourceforge.net/update).
• I’m doing my user authentication with the LoginGenerator gem.

I keep track of any other bits and bobs I find interesting on this subject in del.icio.us at http://del.icio.us/braindelay/ruby.
