Rails Development, Console Foundations - Windows 8.1 Compatible?

Just wondering if I can do this course on a Windows 8.1 or do I need to install Ubuntu? I know that the kernels are different from UNIX based systems.

Cheers.

Hi Jonathan,

You can learn this course by using Treehouse console which include in the course.

Sreng Hong thanks. But when working in my own environment it needs to be UNIX based correct? Windows 8.1 will not be the same?
