First, I want to stress that **Octopress is a blogging framework for hackers**.
You should be comfortable running shell commands and familiar with the basics of Git.
If that sounds daunting, Octopress probably isn't for you.
## Before You Begin
1. [Install Git](http://git-scm.com/).
2. Install Ruby 1.9.3 using either [rbenv](/docs/setup/rbenv) or [RVM](/docs/setup/rvm).
If `ruby --version` doesn't say you're using Ruby 1.9.3, revisit your [rbenv](/docs/setup/rbenv) or [RVM](/docs/setup/rvm) installation.
## Setup Octopress
```sh
git clone git://github.com/imathis/octopress.git octopress
cd octopress # If you use RVM, You'll be asked if you trust the .rvmrc file (say yes).
ruby --version # Should report Ruby 1.9.3
```
Next, install dependencies.
```sh
gem install bundler
rbenv rehash # If you use rbenv, rehash to be able to run the bundle command
bundle install
```
Install the default Octopress theme.
``` sh
rake install
```
