Locomotive: Ruby on Rails in OS X

Scott Stevenson’s Theocacao blog has brought Locomotive from Ryan Rauum to my
attention with his post regarding the Apple Design Awards. Locomotive is an environment for developing Ruby on Rails applications on your Mac. It allows you to “try Ruby on Rails without worrying about breaking your current system, it’s an entirely self-contained environment.This seems very similar to MAMP, but for Ruby on Rails. If you’ve ever wanted to try out Ruby on Rails, which is a great development environment for Web 2.0, without the annoyances of getting Ruby and Rails properly set up, this is a perfect opportunity.

Locomotive is donationware and is available for free download.
