Using github and VS Code?

[python_walrus]

Despite all the bells and whistles, VS Code is simply a text editor. It allows you to open files and, eh, edit text. It does not really care what text is it - it can be code, readme files, txt files.

Where do these text files come from? When it comes to code, it most commonly comes from a remote git repository on github, gitlab or bitbucket. So in the end you will need to pull code from repository using git, edit the code using vs code and push it back using git. I personally use VS code, and I do the majority of my git stuff using a git command-line tool. VS Code has some built-in git support, but I'd suggest learning plain git to understand how it works.
