I've very interested in getting started with haml but have no idea what a ruby gem is. I am on a Windows machine and only plan to use haml for generating html. I've got no ruby experience whatsoever but want to play around with haml.

any ideas?

+2  A: 
  • Install Ruby for Windows.
  • Click “Start Command Prompt with Ruby” on the start menu.
  • Run gem install haml on this prompt.
  • Run haml path\to\input.haml path\to\output.html on this prompt to compile a Haml file to HTML.

I've looked everywhere for an explanation like this. Even accidentally installed Rails. This did it!
