Software Used in the Workshop
The following are steps to install the software that is used to develop the workshop example. Don't worry, it's all free.
1. Install Git:
- Go to https://git-scm.com/book/en/v2/Getting-Started-Installing-Git
- Find the part of the page that talks about your operating system.
- Follow the installation instructions
B. Install VS Code:
- If you have a different code-editing environment that you prefer to use, you may be able to use that one; however, we will be relying on a VS Code feature to host an HTML file locally during development. See the next step for details
- Go to: https://code.visualstudio.com/
- Follow the instructions for installing the VS Code editor.
- From the VS code menu bar, choose "View...Extensions". This will bring up the "Extensions" pane on the right side of the editor.
- In the search field atop the extensions pain, enter "Live Server" Click the link to the "Live Server" extension that appears at the top of the list. This will show a page with information about the extension.
- Find and click the "Install" button to install the extension.
