Well, as a beginner on RoR, I really enjoy the Bootstrap framework (css and javascripts). It provides rapid and nice results, which gives you time for learning and focusing on specific aspects. Bootstrap framework requires jquery: http://twitter.github.com/bootstrap/index.html

I based my learning on Michael Hartl's tutorial: http://ruby.railstutorial.org/chapters/beginning

A good advice is not to tightly depend on Bootstrap styles (which may change without notice), but to create your own styles derived from previous ones through mixins: http://ruby.bvision.com/blog/please-stop-embedding-bootstrap-classes-in-your-html (But I must admit that I'll care of it only when I feel more comfortable with css).

I hope this helps !

Best regards,

Fred
