#Ruby For Beginners : Setup

Greetings Rubyists:

We hope you are excited to learn Ruby. Before the workshop, we need you to set up your development environment with Ruby and a text editor. Choose one of the three options listed below.

1. Use an online development portal. This is a simple approach and you can do it from a Mac or Windows. You will be able to practice writing Ruby code without installing anything on your computer. At some future time, you will want to get ruby installed and ruby on your machine, but you don't have to for tonight.
   Instructions: Create an account at cloud9.
2. Install Ruby, Sublime, and Git for a Mac. Skip this step if you can type $ gem install sinatra in your Terminal and install the sinatra gem without any errors.
3. Install Ruby, Sublime, and Git for Windows Skip this step if you can type $ gem install sinatra in your Terminal and install the sinatra gem without any error
