Code of Conduct

What article on docs.github.com is affected?

What part(s) of the article would you like to see updated?

The articles describe how to create a Jekyll site for GitHub Pages from scratch and testing the site locally, including the installation of Ruby. Now, the gem used for GitHub Pages, github-pages, has Jekyll 3.9.0 as a dependency, and that version of Jekyll doesn't work with Ruby 3+ (see here for the error when trying to build with Ruby 3).

Thus, the instructions should indicate that the Ruby version to install should be 2.x, and not 3.x.
