Downloading and installing CocoaPods only takes a few minutes.

CocoaPods runs on [MacRuby](http://macruby.org). If you don't have a recent version of MacRuby installed you will need to download it. CocoaPods works best on version 0.10.
CocoaPods runs on [Ruby](http://www.ruby-lang.org/en/). To install it run the following commands:

$ curl -O http://www.macruby.org/files/MacRuby%200.10.zip
$ open MacRuby%200.10.zip
# open MacRuby\ 0.10/MacRuby\ 0.10.pkg

After that you can install CocoaPods itself.

$ sudo macgem install cocoapods
$ sudo gem install cocoapods
$ pod setup

Now that you've got CocoaPods installed you can easily add it to your project.

Yup, lowering the barrier :) For some people downloading and installing something is a real mental barrier.

Having to use MacRuby, especially when using regular Ruby for other things, was a really unnecessary barrier to entry. This makes it possible for people to use CocoaPods out of the box with Lion.
