Posted By Eric Dye on July 29, 2011

Sometimes the only thing holding us back from trying something new, is the chance to try it.

So, why not setup a Ruby on Rails environment and get started!?!

Here is an excellent resource to get you started on your road to Rails:

Rails Installer

You can get started in 3 simple steps:

1. Download the Kit

This is an easy install, with all the common packages you’ll need for a full Rails stack. Download it, and you’ll be running and writing in Rails in now time.

Packages included:

Ruby
Rails
Git
Sqlite
Tiny TDS
SQL Server Support
DevKit

Slick!

About Us:

We've been insanely-interested in exploring how the Church, ministries, and non-profits use technology to effectively fulfill their mission to the world.

With a small blog that started in September of 2008 we grew faster than we had ever dared to dream expanding into a network of blogs that reached more than a quarter million people every single month.

In May of 2011 we re-focused our efforts bringing all of the content back into one solidified brand - a "digital magazine" of resources that still serve the same industries and that still has the same curious heartbeat that started this movement.

Join us - there is still much to be explored.
