Hi @zzj0402,

Your issue might be caused by the building environment instead of jaro_winkler gem itself. I wonder if you are able to install any other native extension with your Mojave environment. For example:

sudo gem install nokogiri

I switched from ruby 2.7.0 to 2.7.2 locally to fix it. Maybe you can go to 2.3:latest?

It seems there's a problem with Xcode's ruby, which prevents this gem from installing. Symlinking the expected ruby version solved the problem for me. See https://stackoverflow.com/questions/63729369/commonmarker-gem-cannot-be-installed-needed-for-jekyll-macos
