When we set up the appropriate environment for running Ruby on Rails, we need to install x-code. I also did it but don't know how it works and why we need to install it.
Could you give me some answers?

There are some modules for ruby, that are written for performance reasons in a mixture of C++ and Ruby code.
To install them, they need to be compiled first - and for that, you'll need the system compiler.
