[View this email in your browser]( As you journey into learning to program, you’ll come across a variety of topics and skills that run in parallel to software development. This week, we’re introducing two of those technical essentials: In this workshop, JD will introduce you to the command line, so you can leave behind the world of drag-and-drop. Join him Tuesday, February 20th at 6pm US Eastern for “How to Navigate & Manage the File System like a Pro.” [Register]( This workshop is a great introductory resource that can complement whatever stage you’re at in beginning to program. Also next week, Trevor will host “Demystifying how the Internet Works”: Thursday, February 22nd at 6pm US Eastern, Trevor will walk through the basics that we need to take the internet from a mysterious tool to a system you can appreciate. You’ll discuss topics like IP addresses, routers, and domain names. [Register]( If you’re feeling intimidated by topics that you aren’t yet familiar with, here’s some feedback from students both new to the topics, and with some experience: “I thought this was a great review of the topic. I've learned about this topic in another course, but this really brought together all of the concepts nicely for me. I was confused as to how packets worked, but your explanation made it crystal clear! Thank you for that.” “Informative; image of the tree and using the analogy of Monopoly helped me to understand absolute and relative paths.” “He was very detailed in everything with pictures/diagrams which I appreciated breaking down something complicated into something simple.” We hope you’ll join these workshops to gain exposure to topics that you’ll see repeatedly, and jumpstart your learning journey. These workshops are open to everyone, regardless of your Launch School subscription status. Looking forward to seeing you there!
