Author here. I hope this can help the community, especially Yehuda with his own one click installer project.

Have you seen Jeremy McAnally's Railcar[1]? It might be worth a look since there seems to be some overlap in goals (even if maybe not in how you get there).

Edit: Here's a link to JM's blog post explaining his choices for Railcar[2].

I hadn't. What I want to make though is a sandboxed environment that doesn't use rvm, etc and that provides everything you need. I also want to make an interface for beginners to easily run the server, execute commands, etc.

That's pretty much what I've built. I just use RbEnv to setup the environment for each version of Ruby installed. Running the server, etc. is already built.

I looked at your project and it looks very nice indeed. Nice work.
