  5. Open your terminal and navigate to a location of your choice on your personal computer that you want to save this repository. I always select my desktop. Then type git clone followed by the HTTPS URL you just copied.
cd Desktop
git clone [HTTPS url]

Use the terminal to clone the repo

Optionally you can use GitHub Desktop if you prefer a UI to work with Git.
6. Open the cloned repository in your code editor of choice. I use Visual Studio Code.
7. Once you have the GitHub repository forked and cloned, you should start on the main branch. I recommend writing all of your code on the main branch, however if you get stuck or lost, each branch corresponds to the final state after the completed chapter. The branch order is as follows:

main
 |_ foundation
    |_header
	|_ home
	  |_ speakers
            |_ responsive-layout

To check out a new branch run git checkout [branch-name] (i.e. git checkout home)

Editor Settings

Below are the visual settings I use in my code editor.

  • Font: I’m using the font Dank Mono with font ligatures. It’s a paid font for 24 GBP. I also recommend Fira Code which is free. Dank Mono Fira Code
  • Theme: I’m using the Material - Operator Mono/Italic theme. Theme
  • Plugins: There are some plugins I recommend installing with VSCode. You can add plugins from the Extensions Marketplace tab in the left navigation. Use the extensions marketplace to add two plugins
  • Live Server: Hot reloads HTML pages when we save files. Live Server
  • Prettier:Formats our code when we save our files. Prettier
  • Color Highlight: Styles CSS colors. Color Highlight

To get Prettier to work properly I had to add a few configurations in my settings.json file. To open this file press command + p on Mac, and enter Preferences: Open Workplace Settings (JSON). Enter the following in the settings.json file and save.

{
    "editor.formatOnSave": true,
    "editor.formatOnPaste": true,
    "editor.formatOnType": true,
    "editor.defaultFormatter": "esbenp.prettier-vscode",
    "[html]": {
        "editor.defaultFormatter": "vscode.html-language-features"
    }
}
