Omniversity of Manchester

Tekin Suleyman and Ric Roberts will be delivering a 3-day, affordable Ruby on Rails bootcamp on 17th-19th of August.

The course is aimed at developers who already know a bit about web development and object oriented programming, but have limited or no experience with Ruby or Rails. The course will provide the skills, knowledge and experience necessary to build and deploy your very own Rails applications from scratch.

Why Learn Rails?

Ruby on Rails is a powerful, open-source framework that enables you to quickly build sophisticated web applications. Rails is mature enough now to provide all the benefits of enterprise-level frameworks like .Net or Java, but it’s designed for developer happiness. By taking an “opinionated” approach, many common software design decisions are made for you (although there are always ways to change the defaults), allowing you to get on with the important task of actually implementing your business functionality. There’s also a massive community of friendly developers and thousands of open source libraries (gems) which you can use in your applications, preventing you from having to “re-invent the wheel”.

As well as 3 days of intensive learning, the £360 course fee also includes hot lunch. You can find out more and sign up .
