How do I create a Rails gem?

Yes, please provide the steps.

1. Create a new directory for your gem. 2. Inside that directory, run bundle gem your_gem_name. 3. Edit the generated .gemspec file to add details. 4. Write your code in the lib folder. 5. Test your gem and then build it using gem build your_gem_name.gemspec. 6. Finally, you can publish it to RubyGems with gem push your_gem_name-0.1.0.gem.

What should I include in the gemspec file?

In the gemspec file, include the gem's name, version, summary, description, authors, email, and any dependencies. This information helps users understand what your gem does.
