About Jstree

The jstree installation requires the gem to be installed, but sometimes it fails to correctly substitute the lines in the SCSS files. The procedure to get the correct SCSS lines is indicated in the Jstree page :

cd 'vendor/bundle/path/to/jstree-rails-4-version'
ruby -r './lib/jstree-rails-4/source_file.rb' -e 'SourceFile.new.fetch'
ruby -r './lib/jstree-rails-4/source_file.rb' -e 'SourceFile.new.convert'

The step about fetching the files may not be necessary. Normally, the SCSS files should contain links to "throbber.gif" surrounded by "image-url".
