Rails Tutorial dot Org (Free Online Book): https://www.railstutorial.org/book

If you read Traditional Chinese, then please reference (or plus Google Translate my Ruby mentor's site, but unfortunately it's only up-to-date for Rails 4.2 I think, since Rails 5 is just recently released): https://ihower.tw/rails4/ (Ruby on Rails 實戰聖經)

And obviously the defacto site for Rails guide: (but unfortunately, I feel that site is just version controlled and not owned by one author, so sometimes you have to refer to the edge guide and some times for older versions the regular guide). http://guides.rubyonrails.org/ vs http://edgeguides.rubyonrails.org/ (but now that rails 5 is out, the differences should be little?)

Some stuff I got influenced thru training (ISC(2) CSSLP, not certified though, cuz I don't believe in paying certifications periodically): https://www.owasp.org/index.php/Secure_SDLC_Cheat_Sheet

Agile Kanban, why I use Trello, JIRA Agile Kanban (used to be called greenhopper), I just heard Blossom last meeting (https://www.blossom.co/kanban), nice : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kanban_(development)
