install cocoapods and ruby on macbook pro M1 - resolve issue with flutter

Installing Cocoapods on Macbook Pro M1 can be a challenge. Here I discuss how to resolve your issue and get your Flutter App running on iPhone (real device and not the emulator).

Errors that you will get that re related to this are

brother..
while i try install new plugins in a flutter project i run into issue with cocoapods..
although cocoapods have been installed properly as i do flutter doctor -v ..
inside project it says setpup cocoapods for macos..
install cocoapods failed...any idea ?

So if you're installing from a terminal set for Rosetta, do you also need to set VScode (or Xcode/Android studio) for rosetta as well when running flutter?

Thats not the issue...there is a complete different issue...my cocoapods work fine..but when it project i install plugin and install pods there is an error.
