Git for Windows is needed to be able to fetch and push code into GitHub. Now close Visual Studio Code so we can move on to installing “Git for Windows” Installing Git for Windows This is just an extension that I like to use so you can skip it if you don’t want it. Next search for “Bracket” and click on “Install”. Now search for “PowerShell” as shown and click on “Install” When Code is open I want to install some extensions, this is done by clicking on the icon marked on the picture. When the installation is completed make sure that the checkbox is marked so that Code will open up so we can do some work in there. Review the selected configuration and click “Install” if you are satisfied I have chosen to mark all the options under “Other” this is because I use Code as my default edition. Click “Next”Ĭhoose the additional tasks that fit your needs. I have chosen to use the default location. Hit “Next”Ĭhoose the installation directory. Run the file to start the installation process. Now mark the “Unblock” checkbox and hit “OK” Unblock the downloaded file by right-clicking the file, click “Properties” Go to this website and download Visual Studio Code:
The process is fairly simple, but I will do this guide anyway and hopefully do another blog post on more extended use of Visual Studio Code and GitHub. So in this article, I will guide you through the setup of Visual Studio Code, GitHub and finally how to use a code signing certificate. I know I can use just one and mark the code as private or public, but I like the fact that they are separate. Both work well, but I like to have the separate so that I have the code I am working on in my private repository and my published in the public one. I am using source control for both my personal work (like Citrixlab.dk and helping others out) and also for my professional work where I use a shared repository with my colleagues.įor my personal code, I actually have two source control systems, one is the public one for my sharing, this is GitHub, and the other repository is in Azure DevOps. Source control not only ensures that I can revert back to a previous version of my code, but it also provides me with a single place to find all my code. As many of you probably know I do a lot of PowerShell scripting when time allows it, and after scripting, for many years I finally saw the need for source control.
