Where did you get that impression? Rails is a framework for programming Web applications, written in the Ruby language. Assuming you have the development tools (and chops) to use Rails, you can use any front-end methodology you prefer when writing your views (templates, usually written in HTML + ERB). There is nothing at all that is platform-specific about the views.

Assuming the trouble is with bootstrap's dependency on Windows-unfriendly LESS: Have you seen the bootstrap-sass gem? Surely if you can get Ruby running you can compile SASS/SCSS...

Do you have to develop on Windows?

I have a Windows 8 laptop, and use Hyper-V to run a Linux VM for all my development work. Much easier than stuffing around with Windows in my opinion!

Good luck!
Timothy.
