1 . 1 - Setup

Let's Get Set Up for Coding!

Before we dive into writing code, we need to ensure we have the right tools in place. Here are your options:

1. Local Setup:

• Setup the necessary software on your computer.

• Follow the detailed instructions provided in class or [link to instructions].

2. Cloud-Based Coding (GitHub Codespaces):

• Code directly in your web browser.

• A convenient alternative, though slightly less efficient.

After Installing VSCode:

• Familiarize yourself with the VSCode Codespaces.

• Install essential extensions to enhance your coding experience.

• Understand how VSCode works and its key features.

What We'll Cover in Class:

• Creating and organizing files and folders.

• Setting up Git and connecting your GitHub account.

• Obtaining assignments from Mr. J.

• Backing up and submitting your work online.

• Comparing local and remote coding workflows.

• Building your first webpage!
