This is entirely optional to use but for nixpkgs users this is a really
easy way to get things up and running. With just:
nix-shell
All needed dependencies get automatically pulled in, dropping the
user in a ready-to-use shell.
Then as usual:
bundle install
Puts everything in a vendor/bundle directory, which behaves as usual regarding gem install and bundle in general. Should it need to be cleaned up, e.g to start form scratch,
a simple rm -rf vendor/bundle is sufficient.
Also, gem commands can typically be run with or without bundle exec.
It also pins to a specific commit for the channel, so that tool versions
are always consistent.
