Installing Xcode and the command line tools need to be done first because it installs gcc. https://developer.apple.com/xcode/features/

ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)"

Note that Xcode is a pre-req for Homebrew.

http://brew.sh/

https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew/wiki/Installation

Install common tools:

brew update
brew install git vim tmux postgresql mysql tree

curl -L http://install.ohmyz.sh | sh

brew update
brew install rbenv rbenv-gem-rehash ruby-build

# Install ruby 2.1.2
rbenv install 2.1.2
rbenv global 2.1.2
rbenv rehash

echo 'eval "$(rbenv init -)"' >> ~/.zshrc
source ~/.zshrc
gem update --system
gem install bundler rails --no-ri --no-rdoc

For faster gem install tell rubygems to ignore ri and rdoc creating a ~/.gemrc with:

install: --no-ri --no
update: --no-ri --no-rdoc

curl get.pow.cx | sh
