Set Up Rbenv Revisited

  Extendable version manager with support for Ruby, Node.js, Elixir, Erlang & more

  

ASDF - this is a different package manager as it is language agnostic. You can install a plugin for the respect language (i.e. Ruby, nodejs, etc.). I recently tried this one, but have returned to rbenv, just because I prefer it and the Node package manger I use.

  Manage your app's Ruby environment

  

RBENV - this is my preference, and the focus of this article. A major pull of rbenv for me is that it's lighter, and by that I mean that it doesn't have to throw as many hooks into your computer system as rvm, although there is some load to the terminal. This is the exact same reason I prefer N to manage Node versus NVM, because there is ZERO terminal load. This may be the source of another article.

• RVM

  Ruby enVironment Manager (RVM)

  

RVM - When I first started learning Ruby almost two years ago, and set up my MacBook Pro, I started with RVM. It worked fine, and I had no real issues. However, it seemed heavy, computer resource wise.
