All you simply need to do is start up your console and enter the following command: rails project_name Where project_name is the name of the project that you are currently working on. Be sure that you are in the directory that you'd like all your files to be created in. For example, I have a directory in my home directory labeled "rails" where I keep all my rails projects. To run the WEBrick server (what you'll need up and running to view your project in the works) simply enter the new directory where your project was just created and enter the following command: ruby script/server Here's an example of everything you'd need to do: mkdir rails cd rails rails test_app (long print out of files created) cd test_app ruby script/server Your rails project should be up and running! Check it out here http://localhost:3000/ I hope this helps!
