### Install Ruby
```sh
sudo pkg install ruby
```
### Install Ruby Gems
Find the latest version and install it. (Replace `ruby3x` with whatever the latest version is.)
```sh
pkg search gems
sudo pkg install ruby3x-gems
```
## Set Gems directory and add that to the Bash path
Avoid installing RubyGems packages (called gems) as the root user. Instead,
set up a gem installation directory for your user account. The following
commands will add environment variables to your `~/.bashrc` file to configure
the gem installation path:
```sh
echo '# Install Ruby Gems to ~/gems' >> ~/.bashrc
echo 'export GEM_HOME="$HOME/gems"' >> ~/.bashrc
echo 'export PATH="$HOME/gems/bin:$PATH"' >> ~/.bashrc
source ~/.bashrc
```
## Install Jekyll Gems
```sh
gem install jekyll bundler jekyll-sitemap
```
## Verify install
Both of these commands should return some output showing version number, etc.
```sh
ruby -v
jekyll -v
```
That's it! You're ready to start using Jekyll.
