Follow along with the following video (the video is for the MacOS terminal, so if you are on windows you can use your Git Bash and run the same commands):

Can you revert it back to the regular quotes? From my experience, using a different type of symbol can mess up things

Sure @stasel , I can revert to regular quotes, but this will open a smaller YouTube player, which isn’t as as nice-looking. The current quote was part of the original code and is used in the HYF book, displaying a full-width video player. This repository uses this style of quotes for YouTube videos throughout.

If you prefer, I can change to regular quotes.

or

it is possible to use Markdown with embedded HTML for a responsive video link:

<div style="width: 100%; max-width: 100vw;">
     <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5XgBd6rjuDQ" target="_blank">
         <img src="https://img.youtube.com/vi/5XgBd6rjuDQ/0.jpg" alt="Video Terminal Basics for Beginners" style="width: 100%; height: auto;"/>
     </a>
</div>

or we can leave it as it is.

Whatever you prefer.


You'll notice is that once you type in a command, the computer doesn't always give back feedback. This is completely normal. Most of application development goes like that, and it's good to get used to it.

Now we suggest going through the most used commands using the following interactive web application:
Check out the most used commands in this [Cheat Sheet](https://phoenixnap.com/kb/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/mac-terminal-commands-cheat-sheet-pdf.pdf) for macOS Terminal.

## Interactive Command-Line Games

## A little Exercise
Here are two online activities to practice and improve your command-line skills:

This challenge is a little introduction to creating, navigating and editing files directly from command line, without any clicking!
1. **Cmd Challenge** – Small programming puzzles directly in your browser to practice terminal commands. ([Cmd Challenge](https://cmdchallenge.com))

- Try to replicate [this folder structure](https://github.com/HackYourFutureBelgium/replicate-this-from-command-line) (including the file contents!)
2. **Terminus** – An interactive adventure game set in an online terminal ([Terminus](https://web.mit.edu/mprat/Public/web/Terminus/Web/main.html)).

These platforms are great for learning command-line features through practical exercises and challenges.
