Gem::LoadError sqlite3 1.4.2

I came across mixed messages in stack overflow, reddit, and here.

Should I have sqlite3 version 1.3 or 1.4? And if I get x64-mingw32 on the tailend of the version, do I remove that?

Error message in http://localhost:3000/ Specified 'sqlite3' for database adapter, but the gem is not loaded. Add gem 'sqlite3' to your Gemfile (and ensure its version is at the minimum required by ActiveRecord).

Ended up finding a solution to this!

In case if anyone else is struggling, here's what I'm using: Rails version: 5.2.4.4 Ruby version: 2.7.2 (x64-mingw32) sqlite3 (1.4.2)
