Learning Rails...

Hi, currently I am working on the Ruby Foundations Deep Dive and was looking to moving on to one of the Rails courses. My question is, is the Build a Simple Ruby on Rails Application or Build a Todo List Application with Rails 4 better for beginning, keeping in mind I would like learn Rails 4.

Thanks

Hey William,

While I haven't gone through "Build a Todo List Application with Rails 4," I'd have to suggest that one just on the pure fact that you want to learn Rails 4 and the "Build a Simple Ruby on Rails Application" is build on a different version.

Also, I had to do some extra googling and stackoverflow searching(not a bad thing!) while doing the "Build a Simple Ruby on Rails Application" to get it to work but I felt comfortable doing. If you're just beginning, you may not be keen at this point in your learning. Although that's all up to you.

Hope that helps.
