The good news is you can run multiple versions of rails and specify the version in the config file. scipt/generate will need to become your friend as this is the easiest way to build scaffolding for almost anything. If you're looking for dynamic scaffolding, I've been using <a href="http://activescaffold.com" rel="nofollow">ActiveScaffold</a>. I also looked at <A>stramlined</a>. Both are nice and offer really "slick" crud prototyping for a website. overrides are straightforward too. As far as understanding what is exactly happening under the hood... you're right. It's voodoo magic until you start creating your own scaffold generators for your frequent tasks. This concept would actually prove really helpful in the TEA world. Imagine using 'script/generate globalReg'. Or even better-- 'gems Helium'.- but I digress. Yes… many things are not 2.x compatible yet.
