Gem Development Guide

01 Oct 2010

From my request yesterday asking people what Rails documentation would be valuable, a large group of respondents said they’d like to see a guide on how to develop a gem. As I figured this would only take me two days to write and would be a good way to promote a certain book, I’ve begun writing one which I should have finished by tonight with only generators and releasing to cover.

You can see it here.

This is the kind of guide I was talking about in yesterday’s post. They don’t have to be short and they don’t have to be long, they just have to be informative. Is this what people would like to see more of? Are the topics I put forward yesterday worthwhile covering or is there something more interesting to the Greater Audience?
