Sample app for Rails 3?

Question

Can someone point me to a solid sample app that shows how to use the new features and syntax of Rails 3?

It's been answered before for earlier versions (https://stackoverflow.com/questions/248371/whats-the-best-open-source-ruby-on-rails-project-to-learn-from), but I have not seen one for Rails 3.

Specifically the following:

• Routing
• Mailer
• new query syntax
• complex forms (how do these work with the new routing)
• unobtrusive js (specifically jQuery)

Answer 1

You might want to check Projexion. It uses Rails 3 beta 3.

Answer 2

Here's a nice Rails 3 overview from IBM (surprisingly), along with links to additional resources.

Answer 3

You might want to look at ror_ecommerce. It's a starter app for an ecommerce site. Runs on Rails 3 and Ruby 1.9.2.

Answer 4

You could refer to Ticketee. This is the application from Rails 3 in Action.

Answer 5

This is a great resource for sample apps: https://github.com/gothinkster/realworld.

It lets you choose front-end and back-end and mix/match because it uses the same API.

Hope this helps some people go beyond the basic to-do list app demos with more robust app demos.
