- [Instructor] To use the exercise files,
go to the exercise file tab on the course page
and download the zip file,
then unzip the zip file.
Navigate to the folder it created,
and inside you'll see folders that represent
each video within the course.
Open up the folder that corresponds
to the lesson you're watching and you'll find
all the materials you'll need for that video.
You'll notice that there's a Read Me included
in the root of the exercise files folder.
Be sure to check that out
for some helpful links on each lesson.
Since our course is mostly driven through terminal commands,
you'll notice that I'm working on a Mac,
but this course will work on a PC.
One thing to note is while I use terminal,
you'll want to use PowerShell with admin access.
Windows also does not come with win,
but in order to simplify things,
we can create an alias that will let you type
the same command as I do on the Mac.
We'll type new alias vi notepad.
This tells PowerShell to use Notepad anytime we type vi.
Now you're all set.
