To access the code for a given video, you'll go to the appropriate branch In GitHub. The format is the chapter number, underscore, video number, and then a B or E depending on whether the code is the beginning state, or end state for that video.

And this is great for viewing the code, but if I want to actually run the code, I can use GitHub Codespaces. To do this, we'll click on Code, Codespaces, and create a codespace on this branch. GitHub Codespaces is a cloud-powered environment built into GitHub that makes it easier for us to…
