# DevBootcamp Phase 3 Prep

## Rails

These are the Rails Guides for things we'll cover in Phase 3. They are a really good overview of Rails and some of the problems you'll solve as a web developer.

One suggestion: make sure you're trying things out on a project (e.g. a blog or todo app). This will help cement the code examples you'll read through in the Guide by applying them in your pet project.

1. [Getting Started](http://guides.rubyonrails.org/getting_started.html)
2. [ActionController Overview](http://guides.rubyonrails.org/action_controller_overview.html)
3. [Layouts and Rendering](http://guides.rubyonrails.org/layouts_and_rendering.html)
4. [ActionView Form Helpers](http://guides.rubyonrails.org/form_helpers.html)

## RSpec (a Ruby Testing Tool)

1. [An Intro to RSpec](http://blog.teamtreehouse.com/an-introduction-to-rspec)
2. [Code Katas for TDD Practice](http://codingdojo.org/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?KataCatalogue) - I'm a big fan of: FizzBuzz, Roman Numerals, Numbers in Words, BankOCR/Number to LCD, Bowling, Game of Life, and Word Wrap.

## Jasmine (a Javascript Testing Tool)
1. [Introducing Jasmine](http://pivotal.github.io/jasmine/)
2. [Try Jasmine](http://tryjasmine.com/) – this is a tool to help you get started with Jasmine without having to set up a project on your machine. It's great for learning the syntax of Jasmine.
