Install Visual Studio Code

Microsoft’s vscode is an open source integrated development environment (IDE). It’s called integrated because you can edit files, open a shell and install plugins to do anything a developer needs to do. Using vscode is optional in this course but it will give you the best experience while accessing opus.

Step 1: Install VScode

Download and install vscode for your platform:

• For Windows, Mac and Linux

• Chromebook

Step 2: Install Remote SSH

Follow the official vscode remote SSH instructions on the vscode website. The procedure was also shown in the class. Establish a connection to opus over SSH. Open your home directory and explore your files.

Step 3: Connect to WSL (Windows Only)

You can have vscode connect to your Ubuntu terminal in Windows. Follow the developing in WSL instructions.
