[Ruby on Rails] Windows 10 Linux subsystem?

I'm looking to do some RoR development, however I hate how annoying it is to run on a windows machine, after windows adding linux subsystem, I was wondering if someone out there have a full tutorial on how to integrate RubyMine IDE running on windows to use the linux shell, it's been hell long since I last installed ruby on a new machine (haven't touched installation files on my laptop for over 5 years...), so a fast revamp on best development installation would be awesome.

Thanks in advance.
Have a cool signature? hit me up and I might use it.
Just save yourself the eventual self inflicted gun wound and use linux.

Most RoR developers I've talked to use OSX or Ubuntu. Rails on Windows is not a good idea.

This.

Set-up a VM if you really don't want to leave Windows.
I know Linux is way much easier and better for Rails development, but it's annoying to keep rebooting every time I want to make few edits on the script. That's why I'm trying to take advantage of the Linux subsystem, if I can install RoR on it and make RubyMine use it as the interpreter, then it'll be really helpful.
Using a VM isn't really helpful, it'll require too much resources, doubt my laptop will be able to handle them.

You have to verify with a credit card but it's very practical.

Not looking for online stuff as I don't have 24/7 access to internet. Thanks for the link though.
