Using the exercise files

- If you're a premium member of the lynda.com online training library, you have access to the exercise files that are used throughout this course. Exercise files for this course are arranged by chapter and are located in folders that are named based upon the movie they represent. There's also a finished version of the file, if you wanna compare my finished version with your exercise file. Now, since each exercise is self-contained, you'll wanna work with these folders individually. I recommend copying the entire Exercise Files directory to the desktop, as I've done here, and then working on the files from the appropriate folder.

I'll call out the location of the exercise files for each movie, and you should see a brief overlay that'll also tell you where you can find those files. I'll be using Brackets as my code editor. It's a free, open source editor that works on multiple platforms. Feel free to use it, but it really doesn't matter which code editor you choose. I recommend using whatever you're comfortable with.
