• Start by reading this good, brief(ish) overview of the language (skip the last section, on memory leaks). _(M)_
• Create a Rails app to compare Ruby & Javascript _(XL)_
  • App should have 2 resources: similarities & differences
  • Each similarity (or difference) should have two attributes: title and text.
  • Each resource should have a page listing the titles of every item in the category, and the title should link to a page that has the title and text.
  • The list page should also have a link to create a new similarity (or difference), and the detail page for each similarity (or difference) should have a link to edit and a button to delete it.
  • Create as many entries as you can for the similarities and differences between the two languages.
• Read over the Document Object Model, and type out pages for the first three examples of using Javascript on a web page _(M)_
  • Since those pages don't have any Ruby in them, they can go in the public/ folder of your new app.
