Rails: jQuery & AJAX Tutorial

jQuery and jQuery-ujs

When using Rails 3.0 and later we already get jquery-rails for free. Look in the gemfile and you'll see:

gem "jquery-rails"

You can view the full documentation here: source: https://github.com/indirect/jquery-rails

If you take a look in APP_DIR/app/assets/javascripts/application.js, you'll notice the following lines of code:

15 Questions to Ask During a Ruby Interview

Originally published in June 2008

When hiring Ruby on Rails programmers, knowing the right questions to ask during an interview was a real challenge for me at first. In 30 minutes or less, it's difficult to get a solid read on a candidate's skill set without looking at code they've previously written. And in the corporate/enterprise world, I often don't have access to their previous work.

To ensure we hired competent ruby developers at my last job, I created a list of 15 ruby questions -- a ruby measuring stick if you will -- to select the cream of the crop that walked through our doors.

What to expect

Candidates will typically give you a range of responses based on their experience and personality. So it's up to you to decide the correctness of their answer.
