We will use RVM to install Ruby on Rails in this tutorial. In order to install RVM on your server, you can use the following commands:<\/p>\n<pre>gpg --keyserver hkp:\/\/keys.gnupg.net --recv-keys 409B6B1796C275462A1703113804BB82D39DC0E3\r\ncd \/tmp &amp;&amp; \\curl -sSL https:\/\/get.rvm.io -o rvm.sh\r\ncat \/tmp\/rvm.sh | bash -s stable\r\n<\/pre>\n<p>If you get something like this:<\/p>\n<pre>-bash: curl: command not found<\/pre>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3-Install-CURL-on-your-server\"><\/span>3. Install CURL on your server<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>that means <code>curl<\/code> is not installed on your server. Go ahead and install curl by using the command below:<\/p>\n<pre>apt-get install curl<\/pre>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4-Run-RVM\"><\/span>4. Run RVM<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>To start using RVM you need to run:<\/p>\n<pre>source \/usr\/local\/rvm\/scripts\/rvm<\/pre>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"5-List-which-Ruby-versions-are-available-for-installation\"><\/span>5.\u00a0\u00a0List which Ruby versions are available for installation<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>To list which Ruby versions are available for installation, run the following command:<\/p>\n<pre>rvm list known<\/pre>\n<p>The list should look like the following one:<\/p>\n<pre># rvm list known\r\n# MRI Rubies\r\n[ruby-] 1.8.6 [-p420]\r\n[ruby-] 1.8.7 [-head] # security released on head\r\n[ruby-] 1.9.1 [-p431]\r\n[ruby-] 1.9.2 [-p330]\r\n[ruby-] 1.9.3 [-p551]\r\n[ruby-] 2.0.0 [-p648]\r\n[ruby-] 2.1 [.8]\r\n[ruby-] 2.2 [.4]\r\n[ruby-] 2.3 [.0]\r\n[ruby-] 2.2-head\r\nruby-head\r\n...<\/pre>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"6-Install-the-version-of-your-choice\"><\/span>6.

Verify Ruby on Rails Installation<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>To verify the installation as well as to check what version of Ruby you are currently using, you can use the command:<\/p>\n<pre>ruby --version<\/pre>\n<p>The output should be similar to the following one:<\/p>\n<pre># ruby --version\r\nruby 2.3.0p0 (2015-12-25 revision 53290) [x86_64-linux]<\/pre>\n<p>To do the same for Rails, use the command:<\/p>\n<pre>rails -v<\/pre>\n<p>The output should be similar to the following one:<\/p>\n<pre># rails -v\r\nRails 5.0.0.1<\/pre>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"8-Create-a-new-Ruby-on-Rails-application\"><\/span>8.\u00a0Create a new Ruby on Rails application<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Now you are ready to start with your first Ruby on Rails project.

Once your new Ruby on Rails application is created, you can start developing the application. There are <a href=\"http:\/\/guides.rubyonrails.org\/\">new guides for Rails 5.0<\/a> which will help you understand how all of the pieces fit together.
