First, what OS are you running? If you're on OS X, the advice that follows applies. If not, you'll need to ignore the part about homebrew (an OS X software manager).
rbenv is mature, but not terribly active these days. RVM is still pretty active. chruby is great, but you have to roll your own dependencies. If you run RVM along with homebrew, RVM will attempt to install and update dependencies for you. Depending upon your level of sysadmin proficiency, you may think that's great, or it may want to make you throw RVM off a cliff. IMO, RVM is one of the better documented Ruby version managers, and so I tend to recommend it. Chruby is also great, but it assumes you want more control of your system. The choice is up to you :) On Saturday, February 25, 2017 at 8:42:05 AM UTC-5, Peter Fitzgibbons wrote: > > You'll find easier use and great documentation with RVM http://rvm.io. > There is also rbenv https://github.com/rbenv/rbenv. > > > On Fri, Feb 24, 2017 at 9:34 PM Aileen Cacayorin <[email protected] > <javascript:>> wrote: > >> Hi there! >> >> Does anyone use chruby as their version manager?
