Sun Microsystems is a sponsor of a new Ruby on Rails seminar. Michael Slater and Christopher Haupt, of BuildingWebApps.com and the LearningRails.com podcast, are offering a two-day Ruby on Rails QuickStart seminar in San Francisco, February 20-21. The seminar is designed to enable web designers and developers with only minimal programming experience to become productive Rails developers.

Attendees will learn how to build Ruby on Rails applications using the NetBeans IDE. They will receive a complete Ruby on Rails site they can use as the basis for their own designs, with deployment scripts and a trial hosting account. The key topics include:

• The Rails approach to web site design
• Basics of Ruby: just enough to get going with Rails
• Using Rails layouts and partials
• Building forms with validation
• Easy Ajax with Prototype, Scriptaculous, and RJS
• Working with the database through Active Record
• Testing and debugging
• Deploying to production
