Posting Etiquette

  1. Ask the main part of your question in the title. This should be concise but informative.

  2. Provide everything up front. Don't make people fish for more details in the comments. Provide background information and examples.

  3. Be present for follow up questions. Don't ask for help and run away. Stick around to answer questions and provide more details.

  4. Ask about the problem you're trying to solve. Don't focus too much on debugging your exact solution, as you may be going down the wrong path. Include as much information as you can about what you ultimately are trying to achieve. See more on this here: https://xyproblem.info/

One of the most common questions that comes up involves trouble setting up VS Code - in particular if you want to not just use it as an editor, but set it up to fully run and debug your code.

Obviously the details vary by platform on language, so I'd welcome any resources you think are particularly good that specifically walk a beginner through how to set up VS Code on Windows with Python, or how to set up VS Code on macOS with C++, etc.
