Windows: I’d use Ruby O. Click Installer, which comes with gems then in cmd.exe \> gems install rails (I always get a timeout or something the first time then do it again and it works fine) Ubuntu: apt-get rails (if your on 7.10 and above I believe) Although I recommend apt-getting ruby and compiling RubyGems so you have the option of having the latest and greatest of both gem itself and versions of whatever gems you choose to install. Then again just $ gem install rails (sudo as needed) Other Linux: Best bet is using the distros apt, yum, or equivalent. Which if your not your most likely compiling and you probably wouldn’t be asking this question if you were already compiling software on Linux. MacOS: no idea, but I it comes with it I think it was people are saying? ---

Comes with Leopard. For Tiger, see: [http://www.rubyonrails.org](http://www.rubyonrails.org) (“Get started” link.) For that matter, see it for the other OSs, too.
