Ruby on Rails remains one of the most productive and elegant frameworks ever built for web development.
This book takes you from the basics of building your first Rails application to mastering full-stack development with Hotwire, Turbo, and Stimulus - the modern toolkit for fast, reactive, and scalable web applications.
Whether you're a beginner, a startup founder, or an experienced developer, you'll learn practical, real-world techniques for authentication, background jobs, API integration, deployment, and performance optimization.
Inside, you'll discover how to:
- Build and structure clean, modular Rails apps
- Add interactivity without heavy JavaScript

- Scale with background jobs, caching, and monitoring
By the end, you'll not only know Rails - you'll think in Rails.
