Learn how to install Rails 4, Ruby 3, Sublime Text, iTerm2, and configure Git. Get ready to code and set up your development environment for Mac. Learn more at www.baserails.com. Created in 1996 by Yukihiro Matsumoto, Ruby became really popular in the late 2000s with the introduction of the Ruby on Rails web framework. While Ruby is used quite frequently for web development, it’s also popular as a scripting language. Ruby is known for being easy to learn and fun to use. So let’s find out how easy it is to get up. If you've been itching to try out Ruby and/or Rails, if the Terminal is somewhat new to you, you may find that even the process of installing it can generate countless confusing errors. This article will detail the exact steps you need to follow to get Ruby up and running on your Mac. Mac has basically Ruby. So, you can install Rails directly, but to support various versions of Ruby, we’ll install rbenv that is ruby version manager. Execute the command below to install rbenv. Brew install rbenv ruby. Mac, WindowsでのRuby on Railsのインストール手順を紹介します。 2018年3月末時点で最新のRuby2.5, Rails5.2に対応しています。 Mac,Windowでローカルにインストールする方法と、ローカルに環境構築せずにブラウザ上ですぐに動かせるクラウドIDE PaizaCloud を使う方法を.

This is an article from the RailsApps project. The RailsApps project provides Rails Example Applications that developers use as starter apps.
Install Ruby on Rails 6.0 on macOS 10.15 Catalina. Up-to-date and detailed instructions, plus troubleshooting, for the Rails newest release. How to set up and install Rails 6.0, the newest version of Rails, on macOS 10.15 Catalina.
The most complete and up-to-date installation guide for Ruby on Rails on macOS and a favorite of Rails developers. It explains how to set up a development environment for Rails, the same used by any professional Rails developer.
If You Are New to Rails
To use Rails on macOS, you'll need Ruby (an interpreter for the Ruby programming language) plus gems (software libraries) containing the Rails web application development framework. If you're new to Rails, see What is Ruby on Rails? or get the free book Learn Ruby on Rails.
Ruby Version Managers
You may hear about one-click installation programs such as RailsInstaller, Cinderella, and BitNami RubyStack. These installation programs are often outdated. Most developers install from scratch.
MacOS comes with a 'system Ruby' pre-installed. MacOS Catalina includes Ruby 2.6.3 which is not the newest version. Do not use the system Ruby (see an article for why). You should install a Ruby version manager and update to the newest Ruby version. You'll find instructions below.
Use Chruby to switch between Ruby versions. Some developers prefer RVM or rbenv but I now recommend Chruby.
A Ruby version manager makes it easy to switch between Ruby versions. I recommend Chruby. RVM was popular in the past but its additional features (its gemsets) are no longer necessary and it adds unnecessary complexity. Sam Stephenson's rbenv is also popular, but requires extra steps (the rehash command) and modifies gems when you install them.
Even if you are a student only building new Rails applications, you should be prepared to manage multiple versions of Ruby. In the future, you will need to install newer Ruby versions as they are released. And if you maintain older Rails applications, you will need a Ruby version manager.
You'll need to prepare your computer before installing Ruby on Rails.
Prepare Your Computer
A Hosted Development Alternative
You can use Ruby on Rails without actually installing it on your computer. Hosted development, using a service such as AWS Cloud9, means you get a computer 'in the cloud' that you use from your web browser. Any computer can access the hosted development environment, though you'll need a broadband connection. Cloud9 is free for small projects.
Using a hosted environment means you are no longer dependent on the physical presence of a computer that stores all your files. If your computer crashes or is stolen, you can continue to use your hosted environment from any other computer. Likewise, if you frequently work on more than one computer, a hosted environment eliminates the difficulty of maintaining duplicate development environments. However, most developers set up a local developmemt environment on their own computer.
These instructions are for macOS Catalina 10.15.
If You Updated to macOS Catalina
If you updated to Catalina from an earlier version of macOS (sometimes called an 'over the top' installation), and you previously installed a Rails development environment, your earlier installation remains intact. You will need to install the new version of Xcode Command Line Tools (full instructions below). Though Rails is still intact after an update, read through this article and take this opportunity to update your development environment.
Upgrade macOS to Catalina
MacOS Catalina was released on October 7, 2019. Make sure you have the latest version of macOS. Under the Apple menu, check 'About This Mac.' It should show 'Version 10.15.0' or newer. If you've owned your Mac for several years and haven't updated macOS, be prepared to spend several hours updating the operating system.
If you need to upgrade, see Apple's instructions Upgrade to macOS Catalina. You can install macOS 10.15 (Catalina) from the Mac App Store for free. Allow plenty of time for the download and installation (it may take several hours).
If you've already done development on earlier Mac versions, be aware of these changes in Catalina:
- Catalina uses Zsh as a default shell instead of Bash. You'll set configurations (such as PATH and aliases) in the .zshrc file.
- Apple has removed the /usr/include folder making it difficult to compile some older system tools.
Terminal Application (for Beginners)
To learn more about Unix shell commands, read The Command Line Crash Course or Learn Enough Command Line to Be Dangerous.
You'll need to use the Terminal application to install Ruby and develop Rails applications. The Terminal application or console gives us access to the Unix command line, or shell. We call the command line the shell because it is the outer layer of the operating system's internal mechanisms (which we call the kernel). Search for the macOS Terminal application by pressing the Command-Spacebar combination (which Apple calls 'Spotlight Search') and searching for 'Terminal.' Or look in the Applications/Utilities/ folder for the Terminal application.
You'll also need a text editor (typically VS Code or Atom) to configure your Mac (and for writing code).
Launch the Terminal application. Then try out the terminal application by entering a shell command:
$ whoami
Don't type the $ character. The $ character is a cue that you should enter a shell command. This is a longtime convention that indicates you should enter a command in the terminal application. The Unix shell command whoami returns your username.
Just a reminder to absolute beginners: Press 'Enter' after you type the command.
Is Xcode Already Installed?
You need to install Apple's Xcode Command Line Tools to get the Unix tools needed to install Ruby and develop with Rails. Xcode is Apple's software library for macOS developers. You don't need all of Xcode for Rails development. You just need the Xcode Command Line Tools. Only install the full Xcode package if you are doing development of applications for the Apple operating systems.
Check if you have previously installed the full Xcode package:
$ xcode-select -p
Scenario 1
If you see:
xcode-select: error: unable to get active developer directory...
The Xcode package is not installed. Jump to the next section and install only the Xcode Command Line Tools.
Scenario 2
If you see:
/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer
The full Xcode package is already installed. Perhaps you installed it previously. If Xcode is installed, you will need to update Xcode to the newest version (Xcode 11 or newer). Go to the App Store application and check 'Updates.' After updating Xcode, be sure to launch the Xcode application and accept the Apple license terms.
Scenario 3
If you see:
/Library/Developer/CommandLineTools
The Xcode Command Line Tools may be installed or an older version is installed. Here's how to test:
$ /usr/sbin/pkgutil --packages | grep CL
You should see:
com.apple.pkg.CLTools_Executables
Also try:
/usr/sbin/pkgutil --pkg-info com.apple.pkg.CLTools_Executables
You should see:
package-id: com.apple.pkg.CLTools_Executables
If you get a response from the test, you're done. The Xcode Command Line Tools are installed and you can skip ahead to install Homebrew.
If you get no response from the test, you have an older version of Xcode Command Line Tools and you must remove it.
Remove the old version:
$ sudo rm -rf /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools
You are using sudo for admin access so you must enter the password you use to log in to your computer (you will not see the password after entering it). After removing the old version, jump to the next section and install the Xcode Command Line Tools.
Scenario 4
If you see a file location that contains spaces in the path:
/Applications/Apple Dev Tools/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer
you will have problems installing Ruby. You should delete and reinstall Xcode.
Install Xcode Command Line Tools
The Xcode Command Line Tools provide a C language compiler needed to install Ruby. For many Rails projects, you will need the C language compiler to install gems that use native extensions (such as Nokogiri).
Here's how to install Apple's Xcode Command Line Tools.
MacOS Catalina will alert you when you enter a command in the terminal that requires Xcode Command Line Tools. For example, you can enter gcc, git, or make.
Try it. Enter:
$ gcc
If Xcode Command Line Tools are not installed, you'll see an alert box:
Alternatively, you can use a command to install Xcode Command Line Tools. It will produce a similar alert box. Note the double hyphen:
$ xcode-select --install
Click 'Install' to download and install Xcode Command Line Tools. If you have a slow Internet connection, it may take many minutes.
If the download takes a very long time (over an hour) or fails, you can try an alternative. Go to https://developer.apple.com/downloads/more and enter your Apple ID and password. You'll see a list of software packages you can download. Look for the latest version of Command Line Tools and click to download the .dmg file. Downloading the .dmg file is much faster than waiting for the command-line-based download. Install the .dmg file by clicking on the package icon. You'll need about 1.46GB of storage on your computer.
Verify that you've successfully installed Xcode Command Line Tools.
$ xcode-select -p
You should see:
/Library/Developer/CommandLineTools
The Xcode Command Line Tools must be installed before you go to the next steps. Just to be certain, verify that the Command Line Tools executables are available:
$ /usr/sbin/pkgutil --packages | grep CL
You should see:
com.apple.pkg.CLTools_Executables
Also try:
/usr/sbin/pkgutil --pkg-info com.apple.pkg.CLTools_Executables
You should see:
package-id: com.apple.pkg.CLTools_Executables
If the Command Line Tools executables are available, you'll have no problem compiling Nokogiri or any other gems that require native extensions.
Install Homebrew
Developers use Homebrew to install various Unix software packages, including chruby and ruby-install.
If you did not use a password to log in to your Mac (that is, if your password is blank), you cannot install Homebrew.
$ brew
Check if Homebrew is installed.
If Homebrew is not installed, install it.
$ /bin/bash -c '$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install.sh)'
The Homebrew installation script will ask you to enter your Mac password.
Password:
The Homebrew installation script may display a warning:
WARNING: Improper use of the sudo command could lead to data loss...
To proceed, enter your password...
Ignore the scary warning and enter your Mac password. You won't see the characters as you type. Press enter when you are done.
If you've installed Homebrew, you can check that Homebrew is installed properly.
$ brew doctor
Next we'll configure Git, an essential tool for any developer.
Configure Git
Before installing Ruby on Rails, you should configure Git. Git is automatically installed as part of the Xcode Command Line Tools.
Git provides a source control repository. Developers use Git to roll back code changes when needed, to collaborate with others, and deploy applications for hosting with a service such as Heroku. As a Rails developer, you'll use Git with a GitHub account for remote backup and collaboration. See the article Rails with Git and GitHub for more background.
Before you configure Git, it is a good idea to create an account on GitHub. It is important to use the same email address for Git and for GitHub. After you create an account on GitHub, follow their instructions to set up an SSH key so you don't have to enter a username and password every time you connect to GitHub from the Terminal.
Check that Git is installed:
$ git version
You should see git version 2.21.1 (or newer).
If the Git version installed with Xcode Command Line Tools is old, you can use Homebrew to install the latest version of Git:
$ brew install git
You can use Homebrew to upgrade to the newest version of Git:
$ brew upgrade git
Configure Git if you haven't used it before. First, list the current settings with the git config -l --global command. Then set user.name and user.email if necessary. Don't just copy and paste the code you see here. Edit it to add your name and the email address you've used for GitHub.
Now you'll be ready to use Git when you need it.
Install Ruby-install and Chruby
Use Homebrew to install the ruby-install utility and the chruby Ruby version manager.
$ brew install ruby-install chruby
You'll see beer mug emojis (part of the Emoji 1.0 standard released in 2015).
Configure Chruby
You must update your Unix .zshrc file so that the chruby program can be found.
The .zshrc file is in your user home folder. It is hidden in the file browser. You can enter Command + Shift + . to show hidden files. If you want to hide those files again, you can enter the same keystrokes.
You can force the Mac to always display hidden files by entering the following command in the Terminal application:
$ defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles TRUE; killall Finder
Hidden files will appear in gray in the Finder window.
Use your text editor (typically VS Codeor Atom) to open the .zshrc file. Check the instructions for your text editor to learn how to open files from the terminal. In VS Code, open the Command Palette (⇧⌘P) and type 'shell command' to locate and click 'Shell Command: Install 'code' command in PATH command.'
To open the .zshrc file with VS Code:
$ code ~/.zshrc
In Unix, the squiggle (tilde) character is a shortcut to your user home folder.
Add two lines anywhere in your .zshrc file. Your .zshrc file may not exist (or may be empty) if you have not used it before. Saving the file will create it.
source /usr/local/share/chruby/chruby.sh
source /usr/local/share/chruby/auto.sh
The first line makes the chruby program available in the shell. The second line will automatically switch the current version of Ruby when you change directories if a hidden file indicates a specific Ruby version.
You must close and reopen the Terminal window for the changes to the .zshrc file to be recognized.
Check that each program was installed successfully.
$ ruby-install -V
$ chruby -h
Now you can install the newest Ruby version.
Install Ruby
After installing the ruby-install utility, install the newest version of Ruby.
The Chruby version manager will use your shell to intercept any calls to Ruby. There's no need to remove the system Ruby. The system Ruby will remain on your system and your preferred version will take precedence.
You can check for the current recommended version of Ruby. Tell the ruby-install utility to check for the newest Ruby version.
$ ruby-install --latest
Then install the newest Ruby version.
$ ruby-install --latest ruby
Add a line to the .zshrc file to set the new Ruby version as a default.
chruby ruby-2.7.0
You'll need to close and re-open the terminal window.
Then verify that the newest version of Ruby is installed:
$ ruby -v
Now you can update the development environment. It is likely some gems have been updated since the newest version of Ruby was released. It's best if everything is up to date before you start a new project.
Check the Gem Manager
RubyGems is the package manager in Ruby. We use it to install software packages that add functionality to Ruby.
Check the installed gem manager version.
$ gem -v
You can check if a newer RubyGems version is available. Use gem update --system to upgrade the Ruby gem manager:
$ gem update --system
Faster Gem Installation
By default, when you install gems, documentation files will be installed. Developers seldom use gem documentation files (they'll browse the web instead). Installing gem documentation files takes time, so many developers like to toggle the default so no documentation is installed.
Here's how to speed up gem installation by disabling the documentation step:
$ echo 'gem: --no-document' >> ~/.gemrc
This adds the line gem: --no-document to the hidden .gemrc file in your home directory.
Install Nokogiri
Nokogiri is a gem that is a dependency for many other gems. Nokogiri is a gem that requires compilation for your specific operating system. As such, if your system environment doesn't match Nokogiri's requirements, compilation of Nokogiri will fail. If your system is configured properly, you'll be able to compile Nokogiri. However, compilation takes time. Every time you install the Nokogiri gem, you'll wait (as long as five minutes).
To save time, install the Nokogiri gem:
$ gem install nokogiri
During installation, Nokogiri will display two lengthy messages in the console. It will also pause without displaying any progress for as long as five minutes. Don't assume installation has failed unless you see an error message or you've waited more than ten minutes.
If Nokogiri installation fails, it's likely your Xcode Command Line Tools are not installed correctly. Try installing the Xcode Command Line Tools from the Apple developer site, as described above in the section 'Install Xcode Command Line Tools.' The maintainers of the node-gyp build tool have provided Installation notes for macOS Catalina that are very helpful in resolving Xcode Command Line Tools installation issues. The Nokogiri maintainers also provide instructions for Installing Nokogiri.
Install Rails
Check for the current version of Rails. Rails 6.0.2 was current when this was written.
You can install Rails into the current Ruby environment.
Here are the options you have for installing Rails.
If you want to install the current stable release:
$ gem install rails
If you want the newest beta version or release candidate, you can install with --pre.
$ gem install rails --pre
Or you can get a specific version.
For example, if you want the Rails 5.2.3 release:
$ gem install rails --version=5.2.3
Verify that the correct version of Rails is installed:
$ rails -v
Rails 6.0.2
Rails is now installed. If you want, you can close the Terminal window. Everything is installed, so you won't lose anything by closing the Terminal.
Next, try building a Rails application.
Create a Workspace Folder
You'll need a convenient folder to store your Rails projects. You can give it any name, such as code/ or projects/. For this tutorial, we'll call it workspace/.
Create a projects folder and move into the folder:
$ mkdir workspace
$ cd workspace
This is where you'll create your Rails applications.
New Rails Application
Here's how to create a new Rails application.
$ rails new myapp
We'll name the new application 'myapp.' Obviously, you can give it any name you like.
The rails new command generates the default Rails starter app.
Quick Test
For a 'smoke test' to see if everything runs, display a list of Rake tasks.
$ cd myapp
$ rails -T
Run the application with the Rails server command:
$ rails server
Use your web browser to visit the application at http://localhost:3000/.
Use Control-c to stop the server.
This concludes the instructions for installing Ruby and Rails. Read on for additional advice and tips.
Terminal Application and Text Editor
The built-in Apple Terminal application is adequate but many developers install iTerm 2. It has more options for customization.
For examining and writing code, you'll also need a text editor program such as VS Code or Atom. Of course, some programmers will suggest you try Vim or Emacs.
Databases for Rails
Rails uses the SQLite database by default. MacOS come with SQLite pre-installed and there's nothing to configure.
Though SQLite is adequate for development (and even some production applications), a new Rails application can be configured for other databases. The command rails new myapp --database= will show you a list of supported databases.
Supported for preconfiguration are: mysql, oracle, postgresql, sqlite3, frontbase, ibm_db, sqlserver, jdbcmysql, jdbcsqlite3, jdbcpostgresql, jdbc.
PostgreSQL
Use the easy-to-install macOS Postgres.app if you'd like to use PostgreSQL.
To create a new Rails application to use PostgreSQL:
$ rails new myapp --database=postgresql
The --database=postgresql parameter will add the pg database adapter gem to the Gemfile and create a suitable config/database.yml file.
Deployment
Most developers deploy their applications with a 'platform as a service' (PaaS) provider such as Heroku.
See a helpful comparison of Rails hosting services.
For deployment on Heroku, see the article:
Security
By design, Rails encourages practices that avoid common web application vulnerabilities. The Rails security team actively investigates and patches vulnerabilities. If you use the most current version of Rails, you will be protected from known vulnerabilities. See the Ruby On Rails Security Guide for an overview of potential issues and watch the Ruby on Rails Security Mailing List for announcements and discussion.
Your Application's Secret Token
Rails uses a session store to provide persistence between page requests. The default session store uses cookies. To prevent decoding of cookie data and hijacking a session, Rails encrypts cookie data using a secret key. When you create a new Rails application using the rails new command, a unique secret key is generated.
The file config/master.key contains a secret token used to decrypt credentials (and other encrypted files).
Take care to hide the secret token you use in production. Don't expose it in a public GitHub repo, or people could change their session information, and potentially access your site without permission. It's best to set the secret token in a Unix shell variable.
If you need to create a new secret token:
$ rails secret
The command rake secret generates a new random secret you can use. The command won't install the key; you have to copy the key from the console output to the appropriate file.
Troubleshooting
Conflicting Bundler Versions
If you install a version of Bundler that is newer than the default installed with Ruby, you will get a message 'Warning: the running version of Bundler (2.1.2) is older than the version that created the lockfile (2.1.4)' when you run a Rails command. You can avoid the warning by prepending bundle exec, for example bundle exec rails -T. It's not possible to remove a default gem with gem uninstall bundler so it's advisable not to install a newer version of Bundler unless absolutely necesary.
Problems with 'Gem::RemoteFetcher::FetchError: SSL_connect'
Ruby and RubyGems (starting with Ruby 1.9.3p194 and RubyGems 1.8.23) require verification of server SSL certificates when Ruby makes an Internet connection via https. If you run rails new and get an error 'Gem::RemoteFetcher::FetchError: SSL_connect returned=1 errno=0 state=SSLv3 read server certificate' see this article suggesting solutions: OpenSSL errors and Rails.
Problems with 'Certificate Verify Failed'
Are you getting an error 'OpenSSL certificate verify failed' when you try to generate a new Rails app from an application template? See this article suggesting solutions: OpenSSL errors and Rails.
Installing in a Second Account
If you've created a second user account on your Mac, and the first user has already installed Homebrew, the first user may have to change permissions for the /usr/local/bin and /usr/local/Cellar folders:
$ sudo chmod g+w /usr/local/bin
$ sudo chmod g+w /usr/local/Cellar
The second user account should be given admin privileges using the System Preferences 'Users and Groups' setting.
Where to Get Help
Your best source for online help with problems is Stack Overflow. Your issue may have been encountered and addressed by others.
To find a real person who can help, attend a Ruby meetup in your city. Google for 'ruby meetup' with your city name.

What Is Ruby?
Ruby is a dynamic, object-oriented programming language that was created in 1995 by Yukihiro Matsumoto, a Japanese developer. Ruby was influenced by languages such as Smalltalk and Eiffel. Its main philosophy is aimed towards the developer’s happiness and productivity. Yukihiro wanted to present a language that’s comfortable to use, easy to understand, and that doesn’t try to surprise you. Therefore, programs in Ruby can often be read like a plain English text. For example: redirect_to root_url unless current_user.admin?.
Main Ruby Concepts
- To start off, all major platforms support Ruby: *nix, Mac, Windows
- Ruby implements a paradigm of object-oriented programming. It has classes, methods, and modules. Nearly everything in Ruby is an object, meaning that you may write something like
5.times { puts 'hi!' } - Ruby is a dynamically-typed language: it means that the developer doesn’t need to declare variables before using them. While this approach has some downsides (Ruby isn’t the fastest language in the world), programs become more compact and understandable
- Also, due to Ruby’s dynamic nature, it’s possible to implement metaprogramming. Basically, metaprogramming involves code that produces code, meaning that you may define new classes and methods during runtime. It’s a very powerful technique that allows writing relatively large programs with little code. Of course, with great powers comes great responsibility. Therefore, metaprogramming requires some experience and advanced knowledge of the language
- Metaprogramming, in turn, allows to create beautiful domain-specific languages built on top of Ruby. For example, RSpec, a popular solution for automated testing, is written in pure Ruby and allows to say something like
expect(user.name).to include('Jo'). Even non-developers will easily understand what this line means!
Some Ruby Features
- Ruby has a great standard library implementing tools to send HTTP requests, parse JSON/XML/YAML, work with date/time and more
- If built-in tools are not enough for you, Ruby has a great community that produced tons of free and open source solutions. Looking for even faster JSON parser? Here you go. Need a fast web server? Go grab it. Wish to build graphical interfaces? Build it! Want to read some jokes about Chuck Norris? Not a problem either!
- Ruby’s community has also produced detailed documentation, tutorials, examples and best practices. If you ever require help, most likely you’ll get it.
Ruby is steadily evolving: New major versions of the language emerge every year. While it may not be the most popular language in the world, at least 10% of respondents said they were using it. And also, it’s one of the most top-paying languages!
It’s on Rails!
No doubt, Ruby’s popularity in recent years has been fueled by the emergence of the Ruby on Rails web framework in 2005. Ever since it has gained a lot of traction from newcomer and seasoned developers. Just like Ruby, Rails is aimed at high productivity and enables coders to create complex web applications by presenting all the necessary tools. This framework implements the MVC paradigm:
- Model manages data, logic, and rules
- View represents the data
- Controller acts as a glue between model and view. It gives commands what data to fetch and what view should present it
Rails is still very popular these days, and other web frameworks have borrowed many ideas from it.
Installing Ruby on Windows
PIK
Linux and Mac OS X have a great tool called RVM to manage Ruby versions and gems. There is an alternative for RVM (which is not supported on Windows), PIK. For more reference consult the GitHub page.
Install Ruby
There is an installer available: Ruby Installer. You will find the installers for different Ruby versions via the download section. After that you will need to install devkit. That is needed in order to build/download gems.
Mac OS X / Linux
RVM – Ruby Version Manager
RVM is the Ruby Version Manager. It is a useful tool to manage several ruby versions and their respective gems. A gem is something like a library that you include in your project like our phrase gem to use our REST API. To get a sense on how it is installed check out the official RVM website.
Next if you want to use RVM in a shell – and we highly encourage you to do so – then you need to add it to your bash_profile with the following entry:
Installing Ruby On Mac OS X or Linux
If you’re working with either Mac OS X / Linux we strongly encourage you to use RVM.
In order to use it see the section for RVM.
Ruby Mac Os
When you have RVM installed there are several steps to follow:
For those who did not install RVM: You can also use homebrew for this.
Note: your gems must be managed by yourself if need be. This can be a time consuming and process. However, there are a great deal of sources for this topic.
To install a Ruby version with homebrew. Note that homebrew only has some of the Ruby versions in store.

Installing the Phrase Gem
First, you need to create a project folder or go to your current working project (For first-time usage we strongly recommend some kind of testing environment where you can get familiar with the phrase gem without breaking anything)
Ruby On Rails Download Mac Download
For those using RVM: To enable RVM set the .ruby-gemset directory for RVM and set the Ruby version in the .ruby-version file.
Install Rails On Mac
Go out of your current directory and switch back to it so that RVM recognizes your current working directory. It will do so automatically. Your shell will tell you that it recognized your .ruby-gemset and .ruby-version files.
