Dive into Hydra
This tutorial is known to work with hydra-head version 6.0.0.
Please update this wiki to reflect any other versions that have been tested.
This tutorial assumes that you have some basic familiarity with Ruby and Rails. If you are new to Rails, we recommend going through the RailsBridge Tutorial first.
A fun way to learn about the basic Rails syntax and patterns is the Rails for Zombies tutorial.
The tutorial also mentions using Ruby Version Manager, a.k.a RVM. Before starting this tutorial, visit the RVM website to learn about how that tool is used. RVM is not required in order to do the tutorial, but you will probably find it useful.

- Ruby 1.9.3 or 2.0.0
