Installing Visual Studio Code

For Angular development, this book will be leveraging VS Code. It is highly recommended that you also use VS Code.

1. Execute the installation command:

For Windows:

PS> choco install VisualStudioCode -y

For macOS:

$ brew cask install visual-studio-code

One of the best features of Visual Studio Code is that you can also launch it from the CLI. If you're in a folder that you'd like to be editing, simply execute code . or a particular file by executing code ~/.bashrc or code readme.md.

1. Verify install by launching Visual Studio Code
2. Navigate to a folder and execute code .
3. This will open up a new VS Code window with the Explorer displaying the contents of the current folder
