I'm trying to install jekyll based on instructions here (via rbenv): https://gist.github.com/r-brown/a0b50d56cfb3596e0d17
Before the "bundle install" step, it states: go to the project folder
However, I'm new and simply truly confused as to what this refers to? I don't actually have a project folder right now, because I am merely in the process of installing jekyll?
Or is that referring to a specific location based on the earlier installation steps?
I attempted to skip this step and directly input bundle install, but that yielded this error
"Could not locate Gemfile".
Referring to this post: Could not locate Gemfile was unfortunately not useful as no one explicitly stated what "project folder" entails...
Why do you want to use jekyll? Usually you would use it as part of a project - which probably entails writing the line:
gem 'jekyll'
...inside the Gemfile of your project. And then, to install the library (along with all other dependencies, you can run bundle install.
This is why the next line of the guide talks about running the command: bundle exec jekyll serve ... -- because the author is assuming that you have a project set up.
However, if you just want to install the gem globally (i.e. not within the context of a project), then you don't need to do anything with bundle. Just run:
gem install jekyll
