Ruby on Rails Tutorial

I am surprised this hasn't been submitted dozens of times in the past.

For those who don't know -- and I guess there are always new people -- this is probably the most famous Rails tutorial on the web.

It has the following impressive attributes:

1. Free

2. Goes through a good process

a. Backs up code to Git

b. Tests the code

c. Deploys it to Heroku

Other paid tutorials are often versions of this one.

I credit Mr. Hartl's tutorial many years ago with my decision to take Rails seriously and find a job where I got to work with it every day. I appreciated the framework, but it often seemed "too cute" or "too magical" for my C++-based tastes. His tutorial provided a sober introduction to pragmatic work with the framework that continues to influence my day job to this day.

(Apologies for never actually buying the book after working through the HTML version and loving it–I'll be sure to purchase a copy this month.)

Seriously! Going through comments it appears that this is legendary tutorial on rails. This should've appeared more than once on hackernews.
