+   - It is suggested that you use a Ruby version manager such as
+    [rbenv](https://github.com/rbenv/rbenv#installation) and
+    [install Ruby 2.3](https://github.com/rbenv/rbenv#installing-ruby-versions).
+   - *NOTE*: rbenv will also provide additional installation instructions in the

+   - Create certs directory within config:  `mkdir ./config/certs`
+   - Copy [these certificates](https://github.com/department-of-veterans-affairs/vets.gov-team/tree/master/Products/Identity/Files_From_IDme/development-certificates) into the certs dir.
+       - *NOTE*: If you don't have access to these keys, running the following
+         commands will provide basic functionality, such as for running unit tests:
+       - `touch ./config/certs/vetsgov-localhost.crt`
+       - `touch ./config/certs/vetsgov-localhost.key`
