Best OS to test Ruby programs

I have downloaded the .zip files so that I could install and run the Ruby client on my Windows pc (32bit system) but as soon as I had extracted the .zip folder it showed a long list of extracted files without any .exe application I could use to write my programs on. Their site does not contain any guidelines as to what to do in order to get everything working. I got Ruby ver2.3.1 which is said to be the latest and works perfectly. But I really don't know how to get around with it.

unfortunately I'm using Windows and couldn't find a way to get any executable file to run Ruby on my system... I need to know which version of Ruby is reliable for running in Windows environment

I use Ruby on windows (and a plugin for Eclipse as Editor). i have installed it by Rubyinstaller (just type it on google). When installing Ruby using the installer, you Must given the option "Add Ruby executable to your PATH" or you have to add it manually.
