  2. Download VS Code as your code editor.

  3. Sign up for a GitHub account and the GitHub Student Pack.

  4. Set up SSH keys for GitHub.

Setting up the Lab Notebook Repo (with SSH)

  1. Navigate to your preferred folder and clone the repo. Use any folder name for .
$ git clone git@github.com:caterinasworld/webdev-lab-notebook.git <folder-name>

Cloning into '<folder-name>'...

  1. Navigate into the newly created <folder-name> folder and rename the remote.
$ cd <folder-name>/

$ git remote -v
origin   git@github.com:caterinasworld/webdev-lab-notebook.git (fetch)
origin   git@github.com:caterinasworld/webdev-lab-notebook.git (push)

$ git remote rename origin labs

$ git remote -v
labs    git@github.com:caterinasworld/webdev-lab-notebook.git (fetch)
labs    git@github.com:caterinasworld/webdev-lab-notebook.git (push)

  1. Navigate to your GitHub account and create a new public repo, i.e. student-webdev-labs.

    Important: Do not create a README file. There’s already one in the repository you have cloned.

  2. Add the public GitHub repository you created as a remote.

$ git remote add origin git@github.com:student-username/student-webdev-labs.git

$ git remote -v
labs    git@github.com:caterinasworld/webdev-lab-notebook.git (fetch)
labs    git@github.com:caterinasworld/webdev-lab-notebook.git (push)
origin   git@github.com:student-username/student-webdev-labs.git (fetch)
origin   git@github.com:student-username/student-webdev-labs.git (push)
  1. Push the files you cloned into the newly created private remote repository.
$ git push -u origin main
