No Documentation on how PDK relates to Gems and the commands needed

[jgiorio]

When running pdk convert or pdk validate and fatal errors occur during loading missing Gems, there is no documentation available on the proper way to fix the issue. Running 'gem install ' works but does not solve the problem because the gem needs to be installed via the PDK and bundler.

To Reproduce
Any time I try to update update missing gems...whether it be through pdk convert or pdk validate while running on Win 11.

Expected behavior
Proper commands to tell me how to resolve... Don't give me the gem install command... give me the right command inside the pdk and bundler to do so.

Additional context

• PDK was installed via Native WIndows plackage
• Now I am at the latest 2.7.1
• I am on Win 11

@jgiorio Could you be more explicit in what errors you are facing? In most cases with gemfile errors I find that deleting the local bundle and gemfile.lock will resolve most of them.

The PDK works by installing your gems itself, if you have any installed directly through the bundle command then they will conflict and throw errors.
