This repository contains exercises for CodeYourFuture students learning HTML, CSS and Git commands.
You will be working on a messaging application in these exercises. Follow these steps to begin working on the exercises.
First, you need to create your own copy of these exercises. We call this a "fork". Follow these steps to create your fork.

cd <your-project-directory>
git clone <your-fork-url>
cd html-css-git-exercises
code .
When you're done, you should see your code editor with the files open on the left, like the following screenshot.

Before you can start the exercises, we must set up the project. To do this, we will install all of the code necessary to run the exercises. In your editor, open the Terminal and run the following commands:
npm install
Carefully read the messages that appear. Are there any errors? If so, please ask a mentor for help.
To begin working on the first exercise, run the following command in the Terminal in your code editor:
npm run 1
This will lauch the sample website for the first exercise in your browser.
Now go back to your code editor. Open the first exercise in the week-1 directory and find the readme.md file.

Read the instructions in this file and follow the steps to complete the exercise.
When you have finished the first exercise, move to the next one. First, go to the Terminal in your code editor, and type CTRL+C to stop running the first exercise.
To run another exercise, run the following code with the correct number of that exercise:
npm run 2
When you reach the final exercise, you'll be asked to submit a pull request. When you've finished that task, post in your Slack channel to let the mentors know that you have finished.
