Using the exercise files

“

- [Instructor] The exercise files for this course are broken down by chapter. There's a folder for each chapter that requires files, and a folder for each video within that chapter. On most chapters, we'll be working through one project. So there's a folder you can start with and use to follow along named WIP for work in progress. There are also end folders for each video that match up with the state of the files at the end of each video. To follow along with chapter six, you'll need a web server. So you will be copying or moving the whole exercise files to that service folder when we get to that point. I have a special note for Windows users. Please make sure to decompress or extract the exercise files zip archive before you try to run any of the examples in a browser. Windows makes it possible if you just open this to browse a zip archive without extracting the files first, which is really nifty when you're working with say one file at a time. But the examples in this course load lots of related files. So if you try to use the examples that way, you'll have very unhappy pages, broken links all over the place, and very little working as it should. So please extract the files first. The way you do that is by clicking the button that says extract up here in the toolbar if you need to, and then clicking extract all. You can also do it by right clicking that zip archive right here on your desktop and choosing extract all. You'll get to choose a location where the files should be saved once they're extracted. And when that's finished, you'll end up with an exercise files folder again. So we don't see that. And when that's finished, you'll end up with an exercise files folder, which you can open and browse through normally. From there you'll be able to open any of the files in your browser or editor as appropriate and expect them to work just as they should.
