Instructions

Task 1: Set up Project

Using VSCode, Codegrade and Command Line:

  1. Fork the repo
  2. Go into canvas and connect your reop to codegrade
  3. Clone your forked version of the repo
  4. DO NOT CREATE A BRANCH. You will be pushing your changes to the main/master today
  5. cd into your repo
  6. open the terminal in your vs code and type npm install
  7. open a split screen terminal with the window button on your terminal
