- [Instructor] To complete the videos in 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 browser, Chrome, Firefox, or Microsoft edge is fine for this course. I'll be using Firefox in these videos, which includes a powerful suite of developer tools. A number of great code editors are available, both free apps and paid ones. 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 Adam, it's fine to use that. 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 and has Windows, Mac, and Linux releases. The code is available on GitHub and users can submit issues there as well. I've also installed one extension in Visual Studio Code and that's Live Server by Ritwick Day. This is an HTTP server that you can launch with a single click and that automatically opens the current HTML document in your default browser. This makes testing some of our code in the browser quick and easy to do. If you want to learn more about anything I use or talk about in this course, I encourage you to explore the library for a deeper dive on that topic, now let's get started.
