# Operating Systems
## Linux
GitLab is developed for the Linux operating system.
GitLab officially supports (recent versions of) these Linux distributions:
## GitLab officially supports
- Ubuntu Linux
- Debian/GNU Linux
It should also work on (though they are not officially supported):
## GitLab.com offers paid support for
- Arch
- Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL)
- CentOS
- Oracle Linux
## Not officially supported
- Arch Linux
- Fedora
- Gentoo
- RHEL
## Other Unix Systems
On the above distributions it is pretty easy to install GitLab yourself.
## Unsupported Unix Systems
There is nothing that prevents GitLab from running on other Unix operating
systems. This means you may get it to work on systems running FreeBSD or OS X.
**If you want to try, please proceed with caution!**

# Rubies
# Ruby versions
GitLab requires Ruby (MRI) 1.9.3 and several Gems with native components.
While it is generally possible to use other Rubies (like
[JRuby](http://jruby.org/) or [Rubinius](http://rubini.us/)) it might require
some work on your part.
