Setting up React Native on Apple Silicon MacBook Air M2

Starting point was following the guide here:

https://reactnative.dev/docs/environment-setup

for installing ruby I chose to use chruby to manage the version.

however when creating a new project I was getting ruby version error

ok lets install ruby 2.7.5

I was now getting build errors when trying to install ruby

the trick was to add "-- --enable-shared"

ruby-install ruby 2.7.5 -- --enable-shared
