☆ Installations ☆

☆ VSCode ☆

  • Other than installing the app on my device, I had to run a lot of commands on terminal through the VSCode directory. To create the vscode directory on terminal, we ran the following code 
     mkdir vscode
 cd vscode
  • then we cloned a repository from github, like so 
     git clone https://github.com/alishahussain/student2.git
  • we also configured git

☆ Homebrew ☆

  • Next, we had to install homebrew, which is a software management software. In this class, we are mainly using it to install other extenstions.
  • I had some errors duirng the homebrew installation process (see “My Journey” tab)
