Portable RubyInstaller
3.0.2-1Seamlessly install the Ruby environment on your target machine running a Windows operating system using this simple and straightforward tool
Considering that it is suitable for both small and large scripts, works just as good for development and production and it is flexible enough to be a good choice even as beginner or professional, it does not come as a surprise that the Ruby environment is the easiest and widely used IDE tool on Windows.
While you can use the official website to get the installation kit, sometimes it takes less time and energy to use a dedicated tool for this purpose. As the name suggests, Portable RubyInstaller is a tool dedicated to helping you set up the notorious programming environment on your computer.
Despite the constant efforts of the community to make Ruby as smooth as possible on Windows, the truth is that it is still less convenient and some even say slower compared to other operating systems. Even though most claim that the reason for this is related to the limitations of Windows' system internals, the truth is that most developers prefer the UNIX style system.
It is important to note that unlike the first version, the second edition allows you to take advantage of the rich set of libraries, such as the MINGW, for instance. In addition, the compatibility with MSYS2 is improved and hence, you can seamlessly install various C-extensions via a build-and-runtime environment.
