This is our first entry diving into the power of combining the  Terminal ,  Visual Studio Code (VSC) , and  GitHub , and why mastering this trio will seriously level up your development workflow. 🧠 What Is the Terminal? The  terminal  (also called command line or shell) is a tool where you interact with your computer by typing commands instead of clicking buttons. It may seem intimidating at first, but once you get the hang of it, it’s  faster and more powerful  than a GUI (graphical interface) for many dev tasks. In  VS Code , you can open it easily: View > Terminal Or with a shortcut: Mac:   Ctrl + `` (backtick) Windows/Linux:  `Ctrl + `` 🧰 What Can You Do With the Terminal in VS Code? Here are just a few examples: Navigate...

I recently complete my IT technical support course from Google, and one of the thing that I found more handy, is working on the command lines. PowerShell for me that I use windows. It is a lot more fast and easy than interacting with the GUI and offers you endless possibilities.  Today, I will share with you how to update git on it: first, you will need to look for the PowerShell, look for this icon:                                                                            Open it, and you will see something like this: first, you can check the current version you have installed by typing:  git --version  The shell will tell you which current version you have installed on your computer, and if there are any other new version available, it will ask you if you want to update. With a Y/n,...
