I had some issues getting it running.. so here’s what I done did to fix it.
Open up a terminal, crack your knuckles, then:
- sudo apt-get install ruby
- sudo apt-get install rubygems
- You also need rubygems, since sproutcore is such a gem.
- sudo apt-get install ruby1.8-dev
- You’ll need this in order for some things to compile during install.
- sudo apt-get install build-essential
- You’ll need this in order for some things to compile during install.
- sudo gem install sproutcore
- Hey look, we’re installing sproutcore finally!
- sudo nano ~/.bashrc
- Save the file (CTRL + X), and close the terminal.
- Open a new terminal and type sproutcore poop and hit enter.. yay, it worked?
*note: When presented with the option, I always chose the ruby install, not win32 or jruby.
Now to go www.SproutCore.com and learn, my friend.. LEARN!
