Publishing to RubyGems

RubyGems.org is the public host where Ruby gems are published and downloaded. When you run gem install or bundle install, it fetches packages from there by default.

• Publishing makes your gem installable worldwide.
• Each gem name is unique and first-come.
• Once a version is published it should be treated as permanent.

Before publishing you need a free RubyGems.org account. You then sign in from the command line so the gem tool can authenticate your uploads. Credentials are stored locally for future pushes.
