@aral And you’re a wonderful teacher! Especially with how patient you are in your problem-solving skills, and having to work around a 10 year old computer that threw a wrench in almost all of your plans 😅🫣 Kitten prevailed! 🐱

@aral
I'm going to follow this at least. I'm not sure I'll have any plans to use Kitten. But I just read your FAQ. Love it! Now I'll have to learn this 😊

@aral Good first pass! I enjoyed reading it. I’d be inclined to omit the mentions of version control until later in the course (lesson 2, maybe?), and start with built-in tools, but I do get that everyone using the same tools makes things easier, and ensures everyone has Homebrew installed. All depends on how focused you are on reducing “time to hello, world!” (Or, I guess, “time to 😸”)

@aral Hi Aral, I didn't get why we should install a different terminal on top of the one already included in the OS. (Disclaimer: I'm a total beginner)

@aral is Brew on Linux actually a thing?

@aral
When I first teach students how to make a link in HTML, I Rick-roll them with the link I demo (which I don't tell them what the link is when I paste it in). I mention that for no reason ;-)
