<!-- That being said, -->I've been thinking about my approach to studying/reviewing. So far, I've been looking through old challenges that utilize Sinatra as the framework. I actually really like using Sinatra, because you have a greater sense of control over the application (Sinatra is very bare-bones). However, in all the challenges we work on with Sinatra, we end up using a template provided by the instructors, known as the "Sinatra Skeleton". It's very useful and well-commented, but I know that I'm ultimately never going to use this template professionally, so it may be time to return to Rails.

I'm very excited for this step because when I was a student, we never really touched Rails 4, so there's lots of new awesomeness to discover. As of now, the short-term plan of attack is as follows:

  • review old Rails projects/repos
  • go through Code School Rails courses
  • resume current/upcoming projects in Rails instead of Sinatra
  • continue to incorporate responsive design learned a few weeks ago

It's been a good while since my last dive into Rails, so hopefully I can get some good work done this weekend.
