Using the exercise files

“

- [Instructor] This course has a set of exercise files that you can download and follow along with. This will give you everything that you need to work alongside of me with the exact same files that I'm working on. In the exercise files folder, you'll find folders for each chapter and a corresponding subfolder for each of the videos that we'll be working on code. In each video's folder, you'll find a start folder and a finished folder. When the video begins, I'll start working with the files in the start folder. Sometimes the start folder may be blank. In these cases we've started with a blank folder and created all of the files necessary. The finished solution for each lesson can be found in the finished folder. You're also going to need Node.js and npm set up and ready to go. Sometimes if you jump to a start or a finished folder, you may need to install the dependencies to make your code work. In our cases, running npm install will install the required dependencies for that folder and npm start should start the application. Use whatever favorite text editor or IDE you want to use. I'm going to be using VS Code. All of the files are text so you can use whatever you want. In the next chapter I'm going to demonstrate an in-browser IDE called Expo Snack. You can even use that one for the entire course if you don't want to set up a local environment at all. Well, that's all we need to know for set up. Let's go ahead and begin learning React Native.
