-# Ruby Hacking Guide
-
-This document gives some helpful instructions which should make your
-experience as a Ruby core developer easier.
-
-## Setup
-
-### Make
-
-It's common to want to compile things as quickly as possible. Ensuring
-`make` has the right `--jobs` flag will ensure all processors are
-utilized when building software projects To do this effectively, you
-can set `MAKEFLAGS` in your shell configuration/profile:
-
-``` shell
-# On macOS with Fish shell:
-export MAKEFLAGS="--jobs "(sysctl -n hw.ncpu)
-
-# On macOS with Bash/ZSH shell:
-export MAKEFLAGS="--jobs $(sysctl -n hw.ncpu)"
-
-# On Linux with Fish shell:
-export MAKEFLAGS="--jobs "(nproc)
-
-# On Linux with Bash/ZSH shell:
-export MAKEFLAGS="--jobs $(nproc)"
-```
-
-## Configure Ruby
-
-It's generally advisable to use a build directory.
-
-``` shell
-./autogen.sh
-mkdir build
-cd build
-../configure --prefix $HOME/.rubies/ruby-head
-make install
-```
-
-### Without Documentation
-
-If you are frequently building Ruby, this will reduce the time it
-takes to `make install`.
-
-``` shell
-../configure --disable-install-doc
-```
-
-## Running Ruby
-
-### Run Local Test Script
-
-You can create a file in the Ruby source root called `test.rb`. You
-can build `miniruby` and execute this script:
-
-``` shell
-make run
-```
-
-If you want more of the standard library, you can use `runruby`
-instead of `run`.
-
-## Running Tests
-
-You can run the following tests at once:
-
-``` shell
-make check
-```
-
-### Run Bootstrap Tests
-
-There are a set of tests in `bootstraptest/` which cover most basic
-features of the core Ruby language.
-
-``` shell
-make test
-```
-
-### Run Extensive Tests
-
-There are extensive tests in `test/` which cover a wide range of
-features of the Ruby core language.
-
-``` shell
-make test-all
-```
-
-You can run specific tests by specifying their path:
-
-``` shell
-make test-all TESTS=../test/fiber/test_io.rb
-```
-
-### Run Ruby Spec Suite Tests
-
-The [Ruby Spec Suite](https://github.com/ruby/spec/) is a test suite
-that aims to provide an executable description for the behavior of the
-language.
-
-``` shell
-make test-spec
-```
