So I've got this pet project of mine that I'm trying to work on in my spare time (hehehe). I started this for several reasons, mainly I need an application that I can sink my teeth into.
I've gone down several paths on how to implement it, from a Javascript view to MonoRail to a smart client. I've finally settled down to using Ruby on Rails to do it. This is the most ambitious choice given my utter lack of knowlege in Ruby and Rails.
So most of my posts will be focused on what I'm learning in the process. The first thing is the Migrations Rock!! We have our own migration-ish nant task to some of what migrations give you. Now I want to use migrations completely and wire it into our nant task. Moving completely to Rake would be cool, but we have way too many assets in nant for us to make that switch.
