From: Colby Callahan Date: 2013-02-01T04:15:13+09:00 Subject: Ruby Project Ideas to get someone hired... --0015175885bc101e4104d49a7267 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 I have started learning Ruby this past week and have down the basics of loops, filters, strings, arrays, hashes, functions, etc. Since I have no professional experience with the language, I figured I would complete a few projects on my own and see if I can get hired somewhere. What kinds of small projects might a beginning Ruby programmer take on that would demonstrate enough skill to get hired? Is Ruby code enough or would it have to be an actual Rails app? p.s. I have no idea how to deploy a rails application - environment seems impossible to set up - yes I have followed more than 5 tutorials exactly. Prob doesn't help I'm on a Windows 64 bit machine as it seems certain dll files and other things get messed up easily.
