From the course: Working with LinkedIn Learning Exercise Files on GitHub

Find the course on GitHub

“

- [David] This is David Gassner. And I'm going to talk about how to work with the exercise files stored on LinkedIn Learning's GitHub account using IntelliJ IDEA. IntelliJ IDEA is one of the most popular IDEs for Java development. And so for this chapter, I'm going to work with a repo that contains Java code, specifically a repo for the course Learning Java. To find the repository for any particular course, there's a couple of ways to go about it. One approach is to go to the course page on LinkedIn Learning. If a course has a GitHub repository associated with it, you should see this content on the right side, the label exercise files on GitHub, and then a button labeled get files. And when you click that button the repository webpage should open up in another tab. Now, going back to that LinkedIn Learning page, if you don't see that button there it could be because you've zoomed in in your browser. So I'm going to show you how this works. I'll zoom in a bit. Notice the button disappears and I'll scroll down a bit. And then down here the button is actually appearing here and that's because the web page is adapting to the browser size. I'll return back to the original layout and the button reappears in its original location. Another approach to finding a repository is to go to the LinkedIn Learning page on GitHub. I've bookmarked that, and I'll click here to get there. It's at github.com/LinkedInLearning. And you'll see a list of all of the repositories that are associated with LinkedIn Learning courses. If you see your course at the top you can just click it like here, or you can click into find a repository and start typing. So for example, I'll type learning and then go and here's a repository for the course Learning Go. I'll change that to Learning Java. I'll find that repository and click it. And then once again, I'm on that same repository page. Once you found the repository, you're ready to start using it in IntelliJ IDEA.
