Decoupling

Today I went through Chapter 5 of the Ruby on Rails tutorial. Some of the things I learned about were:

• link_to
• partials - they use the render command and the files start with an ‘_’ (underscore).
• the asset pipeline
• sass files (.scss) - allow you to use nesting and variables.

At work yesterday I started working on moving over one of our sections of code to use more of a MVC style layout. I made good progress, but I feel like I skipped a step and I need to first finish decoupling all of the css (style tags) and javascript that have php tags sprinkled inside of them and move them to their own separate files.
