If you have ruby already, you can simply type

gem install rails

however, i’d recommend that you don’t do this as you’ll probably be
learning from books and online tutorials, which are a bit broken with
the latest version of rails, due to some changes to do with REST.

instead, type

gem install rails -v1.2.3

version 1.2.3 works with the tutorials. Learn 1.2.3 first and then
progress to the latest version (which is more RESTful) once you’ve got
your head around it. That’s my advice anyway.

If you don’t have ruby yet, have a look here for download options -

Follow steps 1 to 7 specified in this post

Just leave the part of Sybase installation unless you are compelled to
do that and have a licensed copy of sybase :wink:

Actually, yes, this is great as it also installs ruby for you.
