The Metasploit Framework is a pretty complex hunk of software, at least according to [Ohloh](http://www.ohloh.net/p/metasploit). So, getting started with development can be daunting even for veteran exploit developers. This page attempts to demystify the process of setting up your Metasploit development environment to submitting a "pull request" to get your exploit into the standard distribution.
This documentation assumes you're on some recent version of Ubuntu Linux. If not, then you're going to be on your own on how to get all your dependencies lined up. If you've successfully set up a development environment on something non-Ubuntu, and you'd like to share, let us know and we'll link to your tutorial from here.

Note that Backtrack Linux is not very suitable as a development environment, and you will run into missing upstream packages. It's a great place to use Metasploit, but not so great for hacking on it directly.
Throughout this documentation, we'll be using the example user of "Fakey McFakepants," who has the e-mail address of "mcfakepants@packetfu.com" and a login username of "fakey."
