Here is an easy way to do a virgin install of picrate and jruby on a RaspberryPI with (Raspbian Stretch OS).

Download my Rakefile and run as follows:-

rake # to run default task of Rakefile

To list rake Tasks:-

rake --tasks

NB: you will be prompted for password as some tasks require sudo authority (but you should not run rake with sudo authority)

Once everything is installed you can use geanyIDE to explore example sketches (after loading PiCrate project) or to run demo from console:-

cd `~/picrate_samples`
rake

For opengl sketches (P2D, P3D) use vc4 graphics driver

dmesg | grep drm

For video capture use the legacy driver.
