Question for STAFF -- Treehouse VM

I have a question for the staff... How was the Treehouse VM created? Can you point me to the resources I would need in order to build a vm like this for my school?

Thanks, Cristian, However, I was not asking how to install it. I want to know how the actual VM was designed and built. I have a project for which a custom Ruby VM would be ideal. I want to learn how to build one myself.

Basically, you need to learn about chef and vagrant this should get you started.
