Hi everyone,
We went live with the public alpha of our online Ruby training
program, RubyMonk (http://rubymonk.com) last night.
We are on the Hacker News (http://news.ycombinator.com/)
front page and would really appreciate your upvotes.
In just 90 minutes after the launch last night, 698 people
solved at least one exercise, with a total of 8404 exercises
solved!
Here are some of the interesting things about RubyMonk:
* Has book style content built around real code that you get to write
* Tests - all the code that you write has tests run against it (so you
get used to Red/Green early on)
* Problems and Exercises - learn ruby by studying content in a linear
manner, or by solving problems that cut across multiple chapters
It's early days yet, and much of the workflow is rather rough, but
we'd greatly appreciate your feedback so we can make it better.
Thanks,
Sidu.
