Hacks

• Use mkdir to create a directory, then use cd to navigate into that directory.
• Use git clone to create a local copy of a GitHub repository in the created directory.
• Run bundle install where the Gemfile is located to download all dependencies (usually in the VS Code terminal of the project).
• Ensure you have the correct Ruby and Python versions by using ruby -v and python --version.
• Use Python's pip command to download nbconvert, nbformat, and pyyaml in order to run the make command.
• After opening the server address, start making edits to the index.md file to change the main home page.
• For MacOS troubleshooting:
  • In the terminal, run cd vscode, then cd teacher, cd scripts.
  • Use ls to list files in the folder. You will see a file called activate_macos.sh.
  • Run ./activate_macos.sh and let it run.
