Note: Use Ruby 2.0.0. If installed on your laptop, uninstall Ruby 2.2.2. Restart the course by downloading Ruby 2.0.0.

For this exercise, Ruby 2.0.0 works fine.

Hi TaJuanna,

I'm not quite sure what your question is here. Could you elaborate?

As a helpful hint to the Rails Development track, it is best to install Ruby 2.0.0.
Then, continue with the module training.

However, if an individual is comfortable with Ruby, he or she may be able to figure out how install version 2.2.2 and work out the issues discussed in the forum.

I agree with TaJuanna. I use windows and tried to install a Ruby version later than the one used at the video and had problems installing the gems. Better stick to Ruby 2.0.0, just like the one used in the video
