July 22, 2019 Just crossed $10k in sales

After a couple of years building up a YouTube community broadcasting tutorials on Ruby on Rails among other topics I launched a dedicated course that features and end-to-end approach towards building a production-worthy Ruby on Rails application called Hello Rails. The course is targeting those new or interested in the framework.

Much of my audience stems from my blog, YouTube channel, and word of mouth. Roughly 90 people have purchased the course so far. Here's to hoping sales keep on coming!

June 27, 2019 Set up a new referral program

Earn 30% for referring people to https://hellorails.io. You can signup here if you have any interest in being an affiliate. https://hellorails.getrewardful.com/

I'm conducting an experiment to see if more people can be on-boarded using a affiliate model. We shall see how that goes!

    How is the referral program working for you so far?

      So far it's gotten very little interest to be honest. I'm going to promote it a bit more and see how things go. Worst case is that it was a quick experiment that only cost me a little in the end.

        I was asking because I tried a referral program too, with limited success.

          Yeah, I think as a platform grows it makes more sense to introduce an affiliate model. I suppose I'm too small to find it as a great use-case at this point.

          P.S. Loving Elixir of late. I'm only just diving in (I'm a Rails guy) but it's exciting to see what's possible.

June 18, 2019 Hello Rails is live!

Ruby on Rails has helped me take my career to the next level by being able to build out full scale web applications, and now I'm sharing everything I've learned.

After many months of work and years of build up I'm excited to announce that my course Hello Rails is officially live! 🎉

The course clocks in at 90 videos, which guide you from creating a new Ruby on Rails application to deploying that same production ready app to a remote server.

This in-depth course is for you if you have started following a tutorial and aren’t quite getting it. Maybe you’re more of a visual learner or designer like me. Perhaps you want to build out a prototype of your latest idea for an app, or you're just curious about trying a new web app framework. If any of these strike a bell, this course will be a great fit for you.

Some back story as to why I created the course:

A year or so ago I created a YouTube channel called Web-Crunch. Through it I discovered that I enjoy teaching and helping other developers bring their app ideas to life using amazing frameworks like Ruby on Rails.

After receiving a ton of great feedback on over 70+ published YouTube videos, I decided to create a comprehensive course for those looking to learn more about this framework.

I invite you to learn more about the course and give it a shot here: https://hellorails.io.

As a bonus: use the code "H3LL0RA1LZ19" for 10% off the master course.

    Congratulations!
    I develop my indie-projects in Rails. Good to see another Rails tutorial website. Rails is a great web app development framework. Pity, it is not as popular as it used to be.

      Thank you!

      I agree! It's a fantastic resource that is still very current in the grand scheme. Most are just drawn towards the latest buzz which is understandable but Rails shaves off so much time where it counts in my opinion.

I made the course to compete with out dated tutorials and learning materials
