Gem Install Nokogiri Newb

Ruby
1

Hey guys, would really appreciate your help, I’m a complete noob with
programming.

Could someone please tell me how to install a gem on Ruby on Windows. I
am trying to install Nokogiri and have downloaded the gem.

install gem nokogiri

=> gives me the undefined local variable error

install gem nokogiri

gem install nokogiri

not

install gem nokogiri

It may still mess up, being windows, but it’ll at least provide a more
relevant error.

Don’t type it into the ruby console (irb)… type it into your
cmd/terminal/shell
