CS-000 Code Repository

Important

🚨 Do NOT fork or clone this repository yet! Follow the Setup Tasks instead.

Welcome to the CS-000 Code Repository! To get started:

• Complete the setup tasks before the end of Week 1.
• If you run into problems, get help early and often.
• Open the repo in your course IDE when Brightspace directs you to a code repository.
• Learn more about what you are doing and why, if you are curious.

1-1 Setup Tasks

Complete these one-time setup tasks before the end of Week 1 or before starting Repository Activities.

1. Set up your GitHub account.

2. Set up your course development environment.

3. Set up your course repository.

If a setup task does not work as expected, get help before continuing.

Important

Now that you have completed the setup tasks, perform all remaining activities in your course development environment (CDE), not on GitHub.

Repository Activities

If Brightspace sent you to GitHub, switch to your local copy of the repository in your course IDE. If you are using the recommended course IDE, open a terminal, type the following command, and press Enter.

code "$HOME/Repos/cs000"

Find the matching Guidelines & Rubric below. Open the corresponding Repository Activity and follow the instructions. They will guide you through the listed templates and deliverables. If the instructions are unclear or something does not work as expected, get help early and often.
