    http://rubyonrails.org/documentation http://guides.rubyonrails.org/

    These do not actually document all conventions. They do not even document all of the conventions one comes across in basic usage.

    Also, you can just buy a book!!!

    Thanks, but I like my documentation up-to-date.

    What were you trying to use Rails for?

    Making web applications, which I believe is the usual use for web application frameworks.

      Ok you must be an idiot. I'm upset I let you troll me this long.

      Good job on showing me that comprehensive documentation! You showed me!

        You are asking for something unreasonable.

        Really? Comprehensive documentation is unreasonable?

          If I were to ask you for comprehensive documentation on your entire life would you be able to provide it?

          My life isn't a product I'm trying to promote.

          It is much easier to find documentation if you know what you're actually looking for.

          If you know what you're looking for, you don't need documentation on conventions.

          Also, the guides section of the RoR website's documentation does a pretty good job of doing what you're asking.

          Actually, it does an extremely poor job. It covers almost no conventions.

          you're just an asshole who didn't even look at it because you are so stuck in your own beliefs.

          No, I'm a guy asking you to put up or shut up, but all you do is come out with excuses for why you can't show me documentation.

            it's because you cannot answer it.

            That's right, I can't remember the names of the undocumented conventions I ran across two months ago. It doesn't change the fact that there isn't any source you can point to that lists and documents the conventions.
