And when you go in your ruby main code and call that erb template Like in video erb :welcome Means go and pick template called welcome from views folder and render it in HTML As i said that is Sinatra’s job

When you run ruby wiki.rb, you are indicating that wiki.rb is in the same folder as the console is pointing to. If it's in a different folder, you need to include a path to the file, such as ruby views\wiki.rb or ruby views/wiki.rb, depending on your operating system. Sinatra would then start, and expect welcome.erb to be in a folder named views inside the folder named views.
