From a fresh Ubuntu 13.10 install we'll setup the following
LAMP Stack, PHPMyAdmin, MySQL, Curl, GIT, VIM, Ruby, Rails, NPM, Node, SASS, LESS, Compass,Yo, Bower, Grunt.
Whilst how to do this may be obvious to many, for some it can be a pain getting started, so I'll help you get to developing those apps/sites fast.
