Feed Description: All about the full-stack, web-framework Rails for Ruby and on putting it to good effect with Basecamp
Rails is closing in on the first thousand downloads, which means I've been getting a ton of good feedback on how Rails could be even easier to use and setup. I've taken all that to heart and improve the framework in a number of significant ways.
So if you've been holding back on having a look at the Ruby on Rails phenomenon, now is the time to get on board.
