Intro-02

Learning Outcome

At the end of this lesson, you will be able to:

• log into your GitHub account and create a repo

• get access to Amazon Web Services (AWS)

• get Linux container on ChromeOS

Review

• review logging into your school Gmail account

• review Computer Use Policy, especially board intranet

Lesson

• go over how to enable Linux containers on ChromeOS

• go over git and GitHub (see video, up to 1:45):

  • what is git -> version control system

  • what is GitHub -> an internet-distributed Git system

  • do a demo of getting a GitHub account (see video "Getting a GitHub Account")

    • if you already have a GitHub account, just use it!

  • do a demo of making a GitHub Repo (see the video "GitHub Repo")

    • ENSURE you always add a GitHub Action with the "Mr Coxall's Super Linter"!

      • see "Git and GitHub" under "References"

• go over AWS

  • what is AWS → a cloud computing platform provided by Amazon

  • do a demo of getting access to AWS (see video "AWS Academy Account")

    • ensure you use your new @mths.ca account

Daily Assignment

• read ICS4U Course Outline (see file below: ↓) and then fill in this form 

  • take a screenshot when done filling in the Google Form

• enable Linux containers on your ChromeOS system

  • enable the "multiple Linux container" flag

  • create a second container called "Intro"

• get a GitHub account

  • Note: if you already have one from ICS3U and remember your password, PLEASE just use it!

  • go to GitHub.com and click at the top right, "Sign Up"

  • now that you have your GitHub account, lets create a GitHub Repo:

    • create a repo called "ICS4U-Intro-02-TypeScript"

      • this is the naming convention we will be following this semester for ALL GitHub Repos:

        • ICS4U-Intro-02-Java

      • ensure you select all the correct options:

        • for TypeScript: a README.md and NO .gitignore

        • for Java: a README.md and a Java .gitignore

        • add a LICENSE (anyone will do, just have one!)

      • also, ensure you add a GitHub Action to do the "Mr Coxall Super Linting" and the Badge in the README.md:

        • see here: https://github.com/Mr-Coxall/ICS4U-Intro-02-TypeScript 

        • or see here: https://github.com/Mr-Coxall/ICS4U-Intro-02-Java 

        • NOTE: you will need to change the "Owner" and "Repo Name" to your info

    • take a screenshot of the GitHub repo you just created to enter into your notebook

• get access to AWS

  • you should have received an email from me and AWS

  • follow the steps to get in

• for your daily assignment doc, Intro-02, upload 3 screenshots of:

• 1. your Google form

  2. your GitHub repo you created

  3. your AWS login page

• see the example document to know what to submit → Jane Smith - ICS4U - Intro-02.pdf (see file below: ↓)

  • remember, you MUST have an entry for EVERY SINGLE LESSON

Extra

• go to Repl.it and ensure you create a folder called "ICS4U"

  • then inside this folder create a folder called "Intro"

  • now inside that folder create another one called "Intro-02"

  • now inside that folder create a Repl.it and "import" your GitHub repo you just created above

    • (see "Creating a Repl.it from a GitHub Repo" below: ↓)

• take a screenshot of what you were able to accomplish, we are not actually going to add any code this lesson!
