I am setting up a RoR development environment on a Windows machine. I was wondering how I can set it up so a few friends of mine can have access to the web server and monitor the progress?

It would only be 2 or 3 people connecting at anytime time max.

    Give localtunnel a go. It’s a ruby gem so you shouldn’t have any problem getting it going:

    gem install localtunnel
    localtunnel 3000
    

    The first time you do that it’ll ask you for an ssh key, but once you’ve got that set it’ll show you the public url that you can share. Anything running on the specified port will get exposed at that url.

    Showoff-io looks like a similar service, but I haven’t used it so I can’t comment. Also, it’s paid and requires signup.
