RailsInstaller

RailsInstaller is a programming package that integrates a wide variety of tools used for testing Rails code. This installation package is able to automatically load all the dependencies on your system using minimal user intervention.

Supported programming dependencies

The application gives you the possibility to install different programming tools on your system, more specifically Ruby, Rails, Git, DevKit, TinyTDS, Bundler, SQLite and SQL Server Adapter For Rails (SQL Server support).

Deployment process

The developer toolkit comes wrapped up in a pretty large package because it implements multiple utilities gather under a single hood. The deployment process can be carried out as if you were handling a normal installation that requires a few clicks from your side in order to bring the task to an end.
RailsInstaller gives you the possibility to specify the saving directory where all the programs are installed, enable or disable the installation of the Git utilty, as well as add executable files for Ruby, DevKit and Git to the path. In addition, the application reveals the total free disk space required for installing all the components on your PC.
Deploying all developer tools may take a while but this is somehow to be expected since the package contains lots of programming tools.
At the end of the setup, you can make RailsInstaller open up the command-line console from where you can configure Git (you need to specify your name and email address) and SSH. In addition, it reveals a list with links which can be accessed via your default web browser.

Bottom line

All things considered, RailsInstaller provides a straightforward software solution for helping you deploy a complete developer toolkit on your system, and can be mastered by all types of users, regardless of their experience level.
