I created a "rails" droplet but there's no ruby

Ruby on Rails

That’s pretty weird. No ruby, no gem, no nothing. Am I missing something?

Could you provide a bit more information on how you created this Droplet? Was it from our Ruby on Rails One-Click App? (https://marketplace.digitalocean.com/apps/ruby-on-rails)

I believe so. I’ve been poking around and have clicked and canceled more than once as I found my way around. In the meanwhile I discovered that there was a user account called “rails” to which I can log in and find that ruby is installed. I just didn’t see that mentioned before in the doc.
