Rails Magazine Issue 4 Now Available

By Peter Cooper — September 4th, 2009 — 1 Comment

In News

Issue 4 of Olimpiu Metiu's Rails Magazine is now available in both a free PDF download format or in print format (via MagCloud) for $6.62. Contents include:

Background Processing with Delayed_Job
Generating PDF with ODF templates
Feel the Radiance with Radiant CMS
Oracle Tips and Tricks

And interviews with:

David Heinemeier Hansson
Thomas Enebo (JRuby)
Yukihiro "Matz" Matsumoto
Koichi Sasada (Ruby VM developer)
Yehuda Katz (Merb and Rails 3)

The interviews are the real stand outs for me. The code driven articles are a bit cramped in the magazine format but the interviews alone make great reading.

Also...Jumpstart Lab is offering Ruby Jumpstart, an introduction to programming for total beginners, on 9/26-9/27 in Washington, DC. Save $30 with code "rubyinside"!
