title: Jekyll on Ubuntu
permalink: /docs/installation/ubuntu/

## Install dependencies
Install Ruby and other [prerequisites]({{ '/docs/installation/#requirements' | relative_url }}):
```sh
sudo apt-get install ruby-full build-essential zlib1g-dev
```
Avoid installing RubyGems packages (called gems) as the root user. Instead,
set up a gem installation directory for your user account. The following
commands will add environment variables to your `~/.bashrc` file to configure
the gem installation path:
```sh
echo '# Install Ruby Gems to ~/gems' >> ~/.bashrc
echo 'export GEM_HOME="$HOME/gems"' >> ~/.bashrc
echo 'export PATH="$HOME/gems/bin:$PATH"' >> ~/.bashrc
source ~/.bashrc
```
Finally, install Jekyll and Bundler:
```sh
gem install jekyll bundler
```
That's it! You're ready to start using Jekyll.
