I work as a senior engineer at a FAANG and this whole road started with The Rails Tutorial. It isn’t hyperbole to say that Mike Hartl changes lives. Him and the old RailsCasts dude deserve to be in the Rails Hall of Fame.

Thank you Michael! I will forever be grateful for your work on Rails Tutorial, it started me on my path to becoming a developer and the Learn Enough series has been super awesome.

Thank you so much for your work! I owe a lot of my initial success in getting into the industry and setting up my career to your book!

Great, glad to hear it!

Add me to the long, long, long, long list of people living a better life because of your tutorials. Thanks.

Really, really happy to hear this. The Hartl tutorial is my gold standard. Props.

I also am a senior engineer now because of this tutorial :) I'd taken a mess of CS courses in college but had never done professional web development.

Along with many, many other things, this tutorial taught me the basics of TDD, which for me was the big unlock, keeping me out of the debugger for every little thing.

Many thanks, Michael.

You’re very welcome! I’m always so happy to hear success stories like this.

That is indeed a fabulous tutorial.
