Research direction

Start by checking Slather’s gem dependency declarations and the nokogiri release notes for arm64 support; the issue names no files or tests. Determine whether Slather’s dependency constraints prevent installation on an M1 Mac, then verify that bundle exec slather can load nokogiri on that platform.

Description

I'm trying to run bundle exec slather on new MacBook Pro M1 and an error occurred.
Can not load gem nokogiri.

The dependency gem nokogiri has prerelease supports for arm64 but slather.
Can we have a prerelease like them?
