Hey guys!

I’m trying to install ruby but none of the commands seem to be working.
Does anyone know how to do it?

The Endless OS is only compatible with Flatpak Applications. At the moment Ruby doesn’t have a Flatpak version

You can install using the toolbox command. The Toolbox is a tool that offers a familiar RPM based environment for developing and debugging software that runs fully unprivileged using Podman. I recommend reading the toolbox command documentation using the command toolbox --help or github.com/debarshiray/toolbox/tree/master/doc

Create a new toolbox container using the command:

toolbox create --release f33

To run the toolbox use the command:

toolbox enter --release f33

To install Ruby use the command:

sudo dnf install ruby

Inside Toolbox, run the following command to install the Development Tools, which also contain the GCC.
