Great writeup. Environment/project/solution setup is so often overlooked, yet it's so critical. I passed this hump about 18 years ago, but great for newcomers to see. Hopefully this saves a few of them from pulling out their hair.

I'm just gonna come in and say that Michael Hartl's Ruby on Rails Tutorial (available free online here) helped me a ton. It's best if you know a little Ruby first (even just the Codecademy Ruby tutorial will help, but Codecademy's Rails tutorial is a bit lacking), but Hartl's book takes you through setting up free browser IDEs and Heroku/git repository resources, so that at the end, you can launch a functional project.

Highly recommend it for people that know a little bit of scripting, but have never launched a real project.

Dude that was pretty good.

Also guys i was doing a year of CS, but then changed to business because it was too much for me and the teachers were kind of shitty. Yet i still love programming, and i want to learn. I remember being in the library and they had all these amazing books for C++ and i spent hours upon hours on them, but i don't remember their names. Can any of you kind souls recommend me some good basic c++ books, to start releasing again? THANKS
