I'll give it a shot, but TBH, I like the no-brainer apt-get way.

Goal is not to spend a couple of hours fighting to install the stack, but to use the time learning about the language.

apt-get gives me that.

MSFT-specific stack install tool don't really sound like a no-brainer, but I'll look anyways.
