Note: The intention is not to include every fancy script, tip and trick under the sun, this is about basic setup and getting going when you're new and already have a steep learning curve!
People who are new to coding.
Particularly people who have learnt online using inbuilt browser-based editors and tools (often the case in online courses) and have not set up their own environment on their own computers before.
When we were teaching ourselves how to code it took us some time, talking to more experienced developers and trying things out to pick up on all the small things that make our lives easier as developers.
We wanted there to be a single place where new developers could go to find these quickly so they can get past the setup and down to the business of coding.
- Package manager: friendly way to handle Software/Environments
- Terminal setup: command line interface to the underlying operating system
- Text Editor: program that allows a user to edit text
- Git & GitHub: version-control system for tracking changes in computer files(code)
