Hey /g/lenteman, what's the best place to learn Ruby and Ruby on Rails?
Ruby in 20
https://www.ruby-lang.org/en/documentation/quickstart/
Rails Getting Started
http://guides.rubyonrails.org/getting_started.html
This aint the 90s any more, languages provide their own documentation.

Yes, I know that, but I wanted to know if there are some good books and/or webpages with some sort of project to build while I learn.

The Odin Project uses RoR iirc

You're in luck! I took Web Development a few semesters ago and we used Ruby on Rails. Here are the textbooks we used:
>Ruby
Programming Ruby: The Pragmatic Programmers' Guide by Dave Thomas
Never really got to take a look at this one but since it's just ruby I'm betting it will be of some use
>Ruby on Rails
Agile Web Development with Rails 4 by Sam Ruby, Dave Thomas, and David Heinemeier Hansson
It's a little dated, and so following along with the running example in the book can prove to be...difficult, but hey, it will give you good troubleshooting experience (I think you'll come across a Javascript engine problem, and somehow Node comes up if I recall correctly)
Best of luck anon!
