after trying to build ionic project with xcode in my new macos i got an error about cocoapods so I sent this command to install
the main error: ionic skipping pod install because cocoapods is not installed
UPDATE: video below with uZD2EQbBqPg helped overcome the error with the sudo gem install cocoapods command.

$ sudo gem install cocoapods
Thats when I got a bunch of errors. to solve it, i was able to find the solution in the video below with the following command:
$ xcode-select --install
after i tried to install cocoapods, didn't get the error anymore:
