In our Ruby developer career there may come a time when we have to deploy our app with other versions of Ruby. We may also take a fancy to implementations such as MacRuby, and want to try them out. However, installing many different versions of Ruby on the same box can be a real headache.

Even when we’re not dealing with different versions of Ruby, there can be problems when you have conflicting gems from one project clashing with gems from another. This becomes more apparent when you have Rails 2 & Rails 3 projects in active development, and use gems that are only compatible with Rails 2 or 3.

In this screencast we’ll show you deal with these issues in an elegant way by using the simple and powerful RVM: Ruby Version Manager.
