Rack Screencasts: if you don't know Rack yet, you should!
If you’re a Ruby web developer and you haven’t learned Rack yet … now’s the time! Rails 2.3 has spectacular Rack support, as do: Merb, Sinatra, Ramaze, Mack, Camping, and more. I’ve released a few screencasts for learning Rack that some people have found useful … sooooo, I figured I’d share with the rest of the community, incase someone else finds these useful!
- Rack Basics: the very basics of what Rack is, why you should care, howto write apps, etc
- More Rack: rackup files, using Rack middleware, creating slightly more complicated Rack apps
- Rack Middleware: what is it, how to write it, how to use it in Rack/Rails/Sinatra apps, etc

I wanted to post a few additional video links (but I went over my post size limit) … here ya go!
Ryan Bates has a few relevant Railscasts: - Rack Middleware - Rails Metal
Jon Crosby gave a very interesting Rack-based talk at MWRC 2009: - In a World of Middleware, Who Needs Monolithic Applications?
Nice screen casts Remi, Thanks for posting.
I noticed that this wasn’t showing up in my RSS reader … then I saw that lots of posts aren’t showing up!?!? Is there a bug in the RSS feed? :(
It’s a feature. I think I remember Mr.Cooper saying that only some posts show up until they’re approved to avoid spam. That may not be exactly right, but the intention was to block feed spam.
gotcha :( well, there are lots of great rubyflow posts that i never see cause, like most people these days, i view posts thru an RSS reader :/
NOTE: if you find these comments about the RSS feed and you want to subscribe to a feed that shows all RubyFlow posts (including spam, altho i don’t currently see any spam in the feed), here’s the link:
This feed shows all posts :)
