Distributing Rails Applications
http://www.erikveen.dds.nl/distributingrubyapplications/rails.html
I get a lot of emails about packing and distributing Rails applications with Tar2RubyScript and RubyScript2Exe. It obviously wasn't easy to come up with the steps that have to be taken to transform a Rails application into a standalone application. Since I never built a Rails application myself, I wasn't even sure if it was possible at all. That's why I decided to write this tutorial.

Yukihiro "Matz" Matsumoto was looking for an object oriented scripting language. Python wasn't OO enough. Perl's "Swiss Army Chainsaw" approach was too messy. When he didn't find what he was looking for, Matz decided to write his own language. His goal was to create one good enough to replace Perl. Ruby was born in February of 1993 and first released to the public in 1995. Today, Ruby is more popular than Python in Japan. Ruby started hitting the shores of the United States around 2000.

Ruby on Rails is a recent entry into the world of Web application development that is rapidly gaining mindshare, even while still in beta versions. Rails succeeds by automating the creation of the most common types of Web applications while not straightjacketing you if you want to add custom or atypical requirements. Moreover, compared to many Free Software libraries that perform individual aspects of a Web application, Rails contains a nicely integrated set of tools for all aspects.

The foundation of a great web application is proper relationships. The Rails framework takes most of the headache away from developing these relationships and almost entirely eliminates the need to write low-level queries to your database. If you've spent time writing those queries, Rails' ActiveRecord will make sense, but for those of you who are just getting started this can be confusing.

Ruby is "an easy object oriented language". It may seem a little strange at first, but it is designed to be easily read and written. This User's Guide will get you started at invoking and using ruby, and give you insights into ruby's nature that you may not get from the reference manual.

You may have already heard about Ruby on Rails, the new application framework that seems to be taking the Web development community, in particular J2EE and PHP programmers, by storm.
