- [Instructor] To work along with me on the files for this course, you need two applications. A web browser and a code editor. You undoubtedly already have a web browser installed on your machine and any major modern browser, Chrome, Firefox or Microsoft Edge is fine for this course. I'll be using Chrome in these videos, which is a popular choice among web developers because of the extensive and powerful developer tools it has built in. Note that if you're on a Mac and you want to use Safari, you need to go to preferences and select the advanced tab and then click this box, show develop menu in menu bar in order to be able to access developer tools using the menu. A number of great code editors are available, both free and paid apps. Any editor that lets you edit and save plain text is fine for this course. So if you have a code editor you like, such as Sublime Text or Atom, it's fine to use it. I use Visual Studio Code in these videos, which is a version of Microsoft Visual Studio created specifically for web development. Visual Studio Code is free. It has Windows, Mac and Linux releases. The code is available on GitHub and users can submit issues there as well. Now let's get started.
