Ruby Gems are collections of Ruby code (a.k.a. libraries, similar to Node.js packages). They contain code that you can require and use within your projects and/or command-line tools.

Table of contents:

02:39 - Walking through the created files
11:35 - VERSION constant overview

The project is to build out in this video is a gem called Converty—a simple library that allows you to convert an amount between different units. For example, easily convert feet to inches or miles to kilometers or ounces to pounds.

The API is pretty simple to start, a module with a class method that handles the conversion. For example, `Converty.convert(1, from: :mi, to: :ft)` returns 5280.0. When invalid unit types are passed in, a custom exception is thrown.

The majority of this screencast covers the test-driven development flow of writing a failing test, changing the code, and then getting it passing to have the functionality work. In the next episode, I'll go over refactoring the code, adding useful messages to the errors, and supporting more conversion types.

Ruby version: 2.6.5
