Railsapps Obituary

I’ve updated the website at railsapps.org to announce the project is no longer maintained. See the website for details.

The project was popular from 2012 to 2018. Tens of thousands of developers worldwide got started with Rails using the Railsapps project and my accompanying books and tutorials. Interest in Rails began to decline in 2018 and I moved on to other work.

Rails remains a popular and useful web application framework, though many new developers now begin with JavaScript frameworks. Fortunately, many excellent tutorials and starter applications are now available for developers who want to get started with Rails, making the Railsapps project obsolete.

I’m grateful for the support I received for the Railsapps project and for the knowledge, opportunities, and new experiences that came to me through the project. Bless you all 🙏.
