Use The Terminal!
Intro 👋
- don't be afraid of this, its just a way to use a computer without a UI
- ALL of coding is just telling a computer what to do. This is where you start
- you can technically use a terminal for everything if you really wanted to fully nerd out
- why though for real?
- a lot of coding tools don't have a Graphic User Interface (GUI) so if you want to download and install something (like a library or framework like React) you have to do it through the terminal
- it is also how you run servers locally (on your computer) and in the cloud ☁️ (aka on the internet)
- bonus: it actually makes using a computer easier and you can start to do things really fast, plus you look like a hacker 😎
