Smoothly upgrade did_you_mean gem for Ruby 2.3

less than 1 minute read

A lot of Rails apps are using the gem did_you_mean to help during development. Most of these apps are probably going to run into an issue when upgrading to Ruby 2.3, which pulled the gem into Ruby core.

A graceful method of upgrading Ruby is to update the Gemfile version of did_you_mean to 0.10.0 if it wasn’t already. That version was released 4 months before Ruby 2.3, so some apps may already be using it. Version 0.10.0 works with both 2.3 and previous versions.

Fix came from this Github issue
