With macOS Catalina, the setup instructions state to add the following path to your shell config  
echo ‘export PATH="/usr/local/opt/ruby/bin:$PATH"’ \>\> ~/.bash\_profile

Since zsh, Apple has renamed their config the .bash\_profile to .zprofile

Should the shell config be:  
echo ‘export PATH="/usr/local/opt/ruby/bin:$PATH"’ \>\> ~/.zprofile
