I just created a test gem using bundle and it created a .gem file with unreadable content so I was wondering

  1. what does that .gem file contains ? is this binary data ? as I used to think that .gem files contains packaged ruby functions

  2. how is this .gem file being used by rails framework ? since it doesn't look like a module

Thanks
