%h2 There are a couple of ways to start using Sass:
%ol.list-columns
%li.gui-application
%h3 Applications
%p
There are a a good many applications that will get you up and running
with Sass in a few minutes for Mac, Windows, and Linux. You can download
most of the applications for free but a few of them are paid apps
<small>(and totally worth it)</small>.

%dl#install-ruby-linux
%dt Linux
%dd
If you're using a distribution of Linux, you'll need to install Ruby
first. You can use --something--, or --something--,
or --something else--.
%dl#install-ruby-windows
%dt Windows
%dd
Before you start using Sass you will need to install Ruby. The fastest
way to get Ruby on your Windows computer is to use
<a href="http://www.rubyinstaller.org">Ruby Installer</a>. It's a
single-click installer that will get everything set up for you super
fast.
%dd
Along with Ruby the installer will also install a Ruby command line
application that you will let you use the Ruby libraries.
Open --application name--.
%dl#install-ruby-mac
%dt Mac
%dd
If you prefer the command line over an application then getting Sass
set up is a fairly quick process. Sass has a Ruby dependency but if
you're using a Mac, congratulations, Ruby comes pre-installed.
%dd
%p
Here's the quickest way we've found to start using Sass by using
the command line:
%ol
%li
%p
<strong>Open your command line application.</strong> On the
Mac the Terminal.app comes installed by default. It's located
in your "Utilities" folder.
%li
%p
<strong>Install Sass.</strong> Ruby uses Gems to manage it's
various packages of code like Sass. In your open terminal
window type:
%pre
:preserve
gem install sass
%p
This will install Sass and any dependencies for you. It's pretty
magical.
%li
%p
<strong>Double-check.</strong> You should now have Sass
installed, but it never hurts to double-check. In your
terminal application you can type:
%pre
:preserve
sass -v
- if data.respond_to?(:version)
%p It should return <code>Sass #{data.version.number} (#{data.version.name})</code>. Congratulations! You've successfully installed Sass.
- else
%p It should return <code>Sass ???</code>. Congratulations! You've successfully installed Sass.
%li
%p
<strong>Go and play.</strong> If you're brand new to Sass
we've set up some resources to help you learn pretty darn
quick.
