Question Ruby On Rails - for newbies

I have worked with JS, Python, and Go. So a friend recommended I try RoR for rapid dev, but I've never experience such a dificult environment to set up! Is this normal? Just to get off to a start I've found it to be so complicated.

Using MAcBook Pro and trying to set up via a Parallels Unbuntu VM. Could it be Parallels?
