pip install nbconvert
pip install nbformat
pip install pyyaml
jupyter --version
jupyter kernelspec list
b) Then I went to VSCode and opened the terminal in it
c) Then I ran the command: bundle install This installs dependencies in my Gemfile
d) Then I could finally start my local server by running: make Initially the command didn’t work but after commenting line 7 on Makefile (a file in student repo) (to find out what bundle install and make are, refer to terms page below)
August 18th, 2023
Today I cloned the teacher repository (for practice) and a student repository for my website. I also configured a git connection with Git Hub and installed/updated a lot of packages.
1) Cloning the repository
a) First I opened WSL. Then I used the command cd vscode to make sure that the I am in the vscode directory
b) Then I used the command git clone https://github.com/nighthawkcoders/teacher.git to clone the teacher repository on VScode (this is just for my practice. I will be cloning the student repository)
c) Then, I went to github to create my personal repository. This is so that after I clone the student repository, I can push it to my own repository on github.
d) After that I used the command git clone https://github.com/nighthawkcoders/student to clone the repository.
e) I opened the repository throught VScode using code student Make sure you are running VSCode from WSL

2) Git connection to Github
a) I ran 2 commands on WSL:
git config --global user.email <sohampkul@gmail.com>
git config --global user.name <SOoctosnake>
3) Install and Udpating all the packages
I ran these commands below. Keep in mind that the lines starting with ‘#’ are comment and not actual commands I had a lot of these packages installed and up to date but it never hurts to be safe.
sudo apt update
sudo apt upgrade -y
# Install Ruby and necessary development tools
sudo apt install -y ruby-full build-essential zlib1g-dev
# Install Python 3 and pip
sudo apt-get install -y python3 python3-pip python-is-python3
# Install Jupyter Notebook
sudo apt-get install -y jupyter-notebook
# Install Gems
export GEM_HOME="$HOME/gems"
export PATH="$HOME/gems/bin:$PATH"
gem install jekyll bundler

I installed WSL and VSCode. This will help me make a website on github
1) WSL is a type of virtual machine inbuit in Windows to run linux.
a. To properly install WSL, I opened the command prompt as adminstrater. This is where we will be doing a lot of the installations
b. To install WSL, I used the command: wsl –install
c. After WSL installation, I ran this command to install Ubuntu from WSL: wsl –install -d Ubuntu
2) Now I installed vscode. It is good to have all the files of a repository on github but if I wanted to actually make a website and edit it, I would need to use vscode
a) I first downloaded VScode here: Download
b) Then install I it. I clicked on add the Remote Developers extension pack (forgot to do it before) and I clicked Add to PATH
Now I have VSCode and WSL working!
