Development Tools
OS X 10.5 Leopard comes with many open source development tools, includes:

• Ruby and Ruby on Rails
  
• Python
  
• Perl
• PHP
• SQLite

While OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard is coming on Aug 28, 09, following is the installation paths and version info of the software:

Ruby and Ruby on Rails

• Ruby v1.8.6 (runtime and library) - /System/Library/Frameworks/Ruby.framework. Ruby 1.8.6 is fully supported in Mac OS X Leopard including Ruby on Rails, Mongrel, Capistrano, and many other popular Ruby gems (packages). The latest version is v1.9.1.
  
• RubyCocoa v0.13.1 - /System/Library/Frameworks/RubyCocoa.framework
• MacRuby v0.4 (runtime and library) - /Library/Frameworks/MacRuby.framework. According to Apple, this is a version of Ruby 1.9, ported to run directly on top of Mac OS X core technologies such as the Objective-C common runtime and garbage collector, and the CoreFoundation framework. MacRuby now works with a multi-threaded garbage collector, fully supports 64-bit processors, provides DTrace probes, exposes an Objective-C API to control the runtime. The HotCocoa library was improved and now provides an API called HotCocoa::Graphics to access CoreGraphics and CoreImage.
• BitNami RubyStack 1.5-1 (June 10, 09), is an installer that simplifies the installation of Ruby on Rails and its runtime dependencies. It includes ready-to-run versions of Ruby, Rails, MySQL and Subversion. Updated Ruby to 1.8.7-p160 (unix) and Ruby19 to 1.9.1-p129 (unix).
