In the previous episode I showed you how to build the Cappuccino interface for the example Rails Weblog application.

In this episode, we’re gonna create the links between the front-end and the backend.

You can learn more about the Rails Weblog application by watching this screencast by Ryan Bates (@rbates). The original code of the Rails Weblog application is hosted on Ryan’s Github page, but you’ll find a slightly modified version in the episode source code for your convenience. Thanks to Ryan for letting me embed the code directly in my repository.

Useful links :

• create your SSH key (follow step 1 and 2)
• heroku.com : instant ruby platform (with a free plan)

The login / password for the Rails app are admin / secret. This can be changed in app/controllers/posts_controller.rb, at line 99.

In the next 2 screencasts, I will show you how to create a simple Cappuccino application and connect it with the example Ruby on Rails Weblog application.

In this episode, I will build the Cappuccino interface. I’ll make the connections with the Rails application in the next episode.

Thanks to Ross and Francisco who kindly reviewed my code for your pleasure.
