SimpleLog

This week I found SimpleLog by accident, it’s a blogging platform built on Ruby on Rails but what stands out it’s the simplicity in which was built:

“[SimpleLog] is a weblog application with support for tagging, archiving and quick-search. It features a simple admin section with authentication and a focus on writing over all else. The app is therefore limited by default.”

I’ve been studying the source code and it’s been very fun because everything is well documented and structured, it’s a good learning experience. I recommend everyone who wants to learn Rails to download the app and give it a go, even if you’re not planning to use it to replace your old blog.
Simplelog was made by Garret Murray and can be downloaded here.
